Kimoyes Silk

I pinched my partners big photography reflector to use as a solid colour background for the silk images. Best idea ever!
I will admit that it was his idea after I was complaining that the black coffee table wasn't big enough and the red shaggy rug on the floor would distort the colours. It's always handy having someone with photographic know how around.



This beautiful one was the most expensive. I think it was $50/m. I bought half a meter. It's 14" wide (35cm). I'm hoping the gorgeous crane will fit as a center panel for a high waisted pair of knickers.



This delicate one I bought a meter of. The pink is so beautiful and the details are just amazing. This was probably around $10/m.



This one was the hardest one to photograph. The camera has trouble picking up on both the colour and the texture. I thought this design was a little bit more wearable. This was $10/m I was able to find this design on the website if anyone is interested. http://www.kimoyes.com/products/17336



Last but not least, this gorgeous one with a woven detail in it. I just couldn't pass up those flowers that looked as if someone had used a stencil or resist dye, to make that watercolour flower. This one was again around the $10/m mark.

What do you think I should make out of them?
Let me know if you grab anything from the Kimoyes website! There's just far too many gorgeous silks, and I sadly can't afford to own them all.  http://www.kimoyes.com
