Sili-skin is a little tricky to work with. I attach sili-skin to the backside of the fly first. Then I stick the corners of the frontside to my pointer and middle fingers prior to flipping the material over the fly. This way I have full control over making sure the material is in the correct position before I press both sides together.

Here is a sample of my baitfish pattern. I use sili-skin in pearl (thin and apply two coats of softbody to the fly).
