I ordered in some floss silks for some of the projects for the silk shading book I'm working on ('Essential Guide to Silk Shading' to be published by Search Press, April 2011 all being well).

 

Problem is, they look so nice I don't want to take them out of the packet!

 

I think at just over £1 for 80 metres, they are excellent value. Not looking forward to working with them though, will have to make sure my skin is nice and smooth....
