There are virtually no slubs in the silk, so it looks like a silk taffeta. We have a very large JoAnns near us and it has a nice selection of silks in the bridal section and also in the home dec fabric section.<br /><br />I LOVE this shade of blue, too! As soon as I saw the fabric while browsing at JoAnns I knew that I had to make my mother a dress out of it because she also loves this shade of blue!Lindseyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12997514607291740440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1269572143374898969.post-49142360618520849712010-11-10T23:32:48.416-05:002010-11-10T23:32:48.416-05:00She looks FANTASTIC!
