Audrey,
Thanks!!!  It is for a co-workers mom.  My co-worker is trying to locate these kits for her mother.  She used to do this craft and has run out of the kits.  For some reason, her mom wants the whole kits and not the ribbon and piece by piece items that has been found.  Yes, for someone who knows this craft, it sounds like a great project to make and sell.

Thanks,
Cindy

Hi Cindy,
   Are you asking for yourself?  I've been quietly working here in the background trying to locate sites for these kits in answer to your inquiry and I've really had a struggle. They used to be all over and now they're non-existent. There are a few sites that have the ribbon and books, but no kits. 
   I'll keep looking for you, but think about this -- if there aren't any to be had isn't this a marvelous entrepreneurial opportunity for anyone in our group to market them.  Go for it members, especially those of you that have sites already established. Also, here's an opportunity for anyone who knows how to do the craft to start to teach it again.  I want to see the ear radar alert go up and the brain power put on their thinking caps.  Establish an easy project to teach, make up some kits and lets get going! It's much more economical to buy a couple of yards of silk ribbon and make kits up with a small percentage increase than to buy a kit already made. The holiday gift season is around the corner!  This is a new craft to our group.  Now who's going to bite at the hook! 
   Audrey J. Wellner, Secretary

PS  I can help with telling what sites have the ribbon available. Let me know.
