Allie and I went to see the quilt woven with the thread of a million golden orb spiders at the toot today! So epic! It's the only one of it's kind in existence and took 4 years to collect the silk and weave! soooooooo awesome! GO SEE IT! That gold color isn't dyed. It's the natural silk color that the orb spiders produce. The piece was conceived by Simon Peers but took 70 workers to produce it. The silk is supposed to be comparable to kevlar in strength!
