The process of making silk, particularly from silkworms, can take several weeks. It begins with silkworms spinning their cocoons, which typically takes about 2-3 days. After the cocoons are harvested, they are boiled or steamed to kill the pupae and then unwound to extract the silk threads, a process that can take an additional few days. Overall, from cocoon to finished silk, the entire process can span 6-8 weeks.

How long have you been sewing? To make a perfectly tailored silk shirt takes about 8-12 hours for an intermediate seamstress. Be sure to have silk pins, a small needle, and lots of patience. Use non fusable interfacing because the bonding stuff will ruin the material. Remember to pin, pin, pin! And then pin some more because silk is so very slippery. It might even be best to baste the pieces by hand.
