Is there a magic store that sells 29 or 30 or 32 inch silks?

Thanks

Not specifically those sizes. Silk was most commonly woven in 36" or 45" widths...so common sizes are fractions of that size 2 x 18 = 36, 3 x 12 = 36, 4 x 9= 36 and so on. However, dealers can custom cut yardage for you such as Richard Hughes and others.

Personally, I buy my silk from a fabric store that has a wide range of colors and thicknesses and weaves (most commonly: China Silk in a Habotai weave) and have often made 30" silks...it's a good size for many effects.

If you are looking for odd sized silk, Richard Hughes will be more then happy to custom size silks for you. Just contact him at his email address.

I believe I have given you the custom silk manufactures before. Richard Hughes and Abbott's are the most accessible and do excellent work.

Rice's Silk King Studios carries the more standard size silks, 12", 15", 18", 24", 27", 36", and 6'.

Nothing has changed lemartini1050 never never never responds to any of the people that help him.

Does that mean he is French Candanian, I heard other Canadian's are more polite.

PS The French Canadians I have met are very polite.
