Day 2

Being able to see first hand how silk was turned into a beautiful piece of art using methods dating back over centuries was impressive enough. Going one step futher on how impressive this method is seeing the machines and getting to see how silk is transformed into a scarf or a wall hanging. When going into a store and seeing a piece of item with silk used, I will fully appreciate the amount of work it took to make an article of clothing.

  1. I was also amazed by the amount of work they do to make the silk cloth, and I agree that the price of it is worth the money! Beautiful work!

  2. I agree, so cool to see how a cocoon and machines allow for such beautiful scarfs, pictures, and other pieces of clothing to be produced.

  4. I have never justified spending large amounts of money on clothes, but after seeing the process and effort, I agree that silk patterns are worth the price. It helped me appreciate silk more by seeing the entire process they must go to, just to get the strands, then weave it into cloth as well!
