TheWoWDBI used this 15 times after 5.2 became live and got zero new recipes learned. The 24 hour cd one gave me a new recipe though first try. Either I have awful luck or the previous comment is correct and this doesn't yield recipes.

Cannot be used in 5.2 to learn tailoring patterns.
One of two methods available to tailors to create [item=82447].
This method of crafting has no cooldown like Imperial Silk but requires 3 x Spirit of Harmony in place of 3 of the 8 bolts of cloth. This methods requires standing in the Silken Fields, south-east of Halfhill in Valley of the Four Winds, like its counterpart.
Tooltip
This special method of creating imperial silk can be performed as often as the tailor likes, as long as they can supply the necessary materials.

With 5.1, crafting Imperial Silk will reward a [item=92960] instead of the [item=82447] itself.
The [item=92960] will contain one [item=82447] with a chance to contain either [item=90900] or [item=90902].
Note that using the Song of Harmony will not reward a [item=92960] and thus you can not receive one of the new pets using this method.
The only reason to ever use this one is to get around the cooldown. If you have (say) 5 bolts of cloth and just want to make only one for the day, you are essentially exchanging three windwool bolts for three Spirits of Harmony. Better to go to your faction's city in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms and exchange one Spirit of Harmony for 20 Windwool Cloth (4 bolts). It saves you two Spirits, and leaves you with one additional bolt of cloth to boot.
Valley of the Four Winds. Just to the right of the vertical stream on the map.
As of 6.0.2 and for Warlords of Draenor: although one doesn't need to actually be in the Silken Fields to craft the regular version of Imperial Silk (which still has the daily cooldown),
for whatever reason, one still DOES need to be in the Silken Fields to craft [item=82447] through Song of Harmony. :( Hopefully this is something Blizzard overlooked, and is planning on changing in the near future.EDIT: It appears as though Blizzard has fixed this so Song of Harmony doesn't need to be performed in the Silken Fields anymore. Thanks MarkerITS. Whew!
One question, is there any point of keeping Spirit of Harmony for other uses except for this talent, within tailoring? As we're in 5.3 atm.
If you have alts that have a farm in Halfhill, or even just one character with extra patience, I highly recommend planting Songbells in each farm with [item=95446] or [item=89233] and harvesting them after each day. If you have three characters that are revered (12 plots) or exalted (16 plots) with The Tillers, that's 36-48 guaranteed Mote of Harmony (3+ Spirit of Harmony) per day.
Think of it like farming guaranteed motes once a day, but it only takes you a few minutes per session to plant/harvest them as opposed to killing hundreds of mobs for chance-drops. With time, it adds up.
and were are "the silken fields" ?
Silken Fields are located at coordinates 61, 60.
Using Tomtom, /way 61 60
This is a spawnpoint of a giant blue moth, Mothran, that could pop up because someone is on the quest "Mothran!", so just be on the lookout for it if you are making Imperial Silk.
To create one [item=82447] the Tailor can use the Materials-patterns Imperial Silk(550/600) or Song of Harmony(560/600).
The Requires: Silken Fields in those patterns is a zone requirement.
You need to be in the sub-zone Silken Fields of Valley of the Four Winds. The next Flightmaster is [npc=60231]The pattern Imperial Silk creates the [item=92960], that always contain exactly one [item=82447] (and sometimes the companion [item=90902] or [item=90900])
this is what I came here wondering. Thank you for the info, sorry if you're disappointed. on the bright side we can all save those three spirits when it would have really been so little in return.
Buying cloth itself is the only other reason.
And as of just now (patch 6.0.3), Silken Fields is no longer required.
You can make Imperial Silk anywhere in the fields, so you don't have to necessarily be aware of the moth.
If something is incorrect about what I said here, would someone please tell me what it is? The fact is that if you are only going to make one Imperial Silk in a day, you're better off trading ONE Spirit of Harmony for four bolts of cloth with a vendor than you are to use three Spirits to use 3 fewer cloths. What am I missing?
Getting around cooldown >>> saving time/gold farming cloth. Your bags or other crafted materials are worth more as a tailor.
Thanks for the forewarning! I was about to waste three Spirits of Harmony and not even get a shot at the Imperial Moth. Not this time! :)
If you are creating Imperial Silk daily, you shouldn't be worried about 'wasting' Spirits of Harmony to not get one of those 2 pets. You'll get a few *wink.*
Thanks for the warning. Upvoted.
Who ever said that creating Song of Harmony would make the user learn new recipes? It doesn't say so in the info about this item.
Valley of the Four Winds, stones throw to the south from Halfhill town.
I always fly straight into the building with the looms. Seems silly to make cloth anywhere else :)
Good idea! Thanks. I was just weighing that exact option and hadn't done the math! :)
Update, still cannot learn recipe's from this as of current patch,However with the other 2 Mist of Pandaria recipe discover dailies you DO NOT have to be in silken fields.
...What? You... what?
