About YLI Silk Ribbon

High quality Silk Ribbons by YLI are one of Piecemakers favorites for hand and machine embroidery, doll dressing, decorative serging, smocking, quilting, clothing embellishment and all other embellishment, yet the uses of pure silk ribbon are innumerable. YLI 100% silk ribbon is made in Japan by Kanagawa. This Japanese company makes some of the best silk ribbon in the business. It has been around for many years and is is recognized for it's superior quality and color consistency. There is a big difference in the feel and stitchability of YLI ribbon. It is also colorfast and can be dry-cleaned or hand washed.YLI makes about 185 colors of silk ribbon, but not all colors come in all sizes. We try to have all of the 2mm, 4mm , and 7mm silk ribbons at all times.

YLI Ribbon is 100% pure filament silk which means it is the highest quality you can buy. Synthetic or spun silk ribbon products simply can not measure up to the quality YLI Silk Ribbon offers. When putting your hard work into your favorite quilting, crafting, or sewing project, there really is no substitute for the quality YLI Silk Ribbons provide. Piecemakers offers 3 sizes or widths of YLI Ribbon by the yard. The sizes/widths of YLI Silk Ribbons that Piecemakers offers are the 2mm, 4mm, and 7mm (YLI Silk Ribbons are sold in metric widths, with a 2mm silk ribbon equalling approximately 1/16" wide, 4mm equalling approximately 1/8" wide, and the 7mm equalling approximately 1/4" wide).

Try mixing YLI Silk Ribbons with the Hanah Silk Hand Dyed Ribbons and/or the Thread Gatherers Silk Ribbon, or wherever your imagination takes you!

For theYLI Silk Ribbon By The Yard, we recommend the following high quality Piecemakers sewing needles:

Piecemakers Chenille Needles

Piecemakers Tapestry Needles

Most people use tapestry (blunt end for weaving stitches) or chenille (sharp for getting through denser fabrics).

Silk is best on heirlooms because it has historically been a sign of wealth and luxury. Silk comes from the silkworm. It will keep for centuries, if properly cared for, and does well behind glass frames.
On items that will be washed, it's best to pre-wash silk ribbon by letting it soak in a bowl of water in case the dyes bleed.
