I've not been able to enjoy seeing the ends of bolts,
except the few at Hancock's. I tend to order my silks
from various online sources as I need them. But

my experience those times I do know where the silk is
coming from. While I covet the Italian or other finer
European silks, I so can't afford them yet.
