Advice

Silk is not good at absorbing or letting through HF's, so too much will reflect off of the silk.

The most similar thing I can think of is speaker grille cloth, almost everything else is a lot rougher and/or corse.

One other thing, placing a hard backing on the rear is going to LIMIT LF and midbass absorption, and the spacing off the wall will be wasted and inefective due to the hard fiberglass surface. If you need a substrate to work against, perfboard with as many holes as possible, chicken wire, or build an open frame with cross members, then 'seal' the rear with a layer of polyester batting.
