I searched but was unable to find a thread although I'm sure it has to be here somewhere... I'm looking for silks with designs. Don't need specific ones but just some to be chosen from (ie ghost, dragon, sunrise). Anyone able to direct me to a manufacturer with good pricing? Thanks!

Do you want standard designs or custom designs? What size do you want?

Look at a website and see some of the handpainted things I have done. I can also get some screened things in.

Hiya Richard, I am looking for standard designs (actually I don't really have a clear-cut idea of exactly what I want yet... just a couple of vague ideas and I was hoping that looking through a site would help me make some decisions). Right now I am thinking 18".

Check this site out.

As Daniel Faith has noted about, Silk King Studios has a number of design silks in 18", including dragon, clown, butterfly, card, devil, rabbit, and a variety of symphony patterned silks. Here is a link to them http://www.silkkingmagic.com/cat1.htm

Also, I offer discounts for slightly irregular silks. Read more about this at this link http://www.themagiccafe.com/forums/searc......=4054248

By that means if you want standard designs and the best, go with Rice's. The silk is a heavier weight and will serve you well for years. The little more you might pay on some items will be offset quickly by the years of use.
