The city, Suzhou, is famous for its silk quilts. These quilts are made of pure silk, which comes from the silkworms. When they start pupating in their cocoons, they are dissolved in boiling water and then extracted and fed into the spinning reel. The silk quilts are made by skillful workers in many silk factories in the city. The silk quilts are used to keep people warm and comfortable in bed. They are known to be very comfortable because they are light and decorated with very beautiful patterns. Many people come to Suzhou to visit the silk factories and buy not only the silk quilts but many other silk products as well. Every year lots of silk products are sent to many different countries.
