When two different insulating materials are rubbed together, electrons are transferred from the material that holds them less tightly to the one that holds them more tightly. This is a property of the two materials (their position in the triboelectric series), not something created by the rubbing itself - the TOTAL charge of the glass+silk system stays zero (conservation of charge).
