I'm after some checked silk for blinds for a client - does anyone have any suggestions of where to look, please?

Pongees used to have a good range but haven't used them for several years.

Sanderson have a silk gingham in their Options 9 collection. Also Parkatex have some silk checks in their Varanasi collection, or Mulberry in the Grandes Vacances book.
