I don't know how many of you get the on-line newsletter from Bob's Superior Threads but he posted a very sweet remembrance of the staggering challenges being faced by the Japanese following the recent earthquake, including a couple of letters he received from friends over there. http://www.superiorthreads.com/newsletters/591/

I love Superior Threads and of course Bob is fabulous. Just read his newsletter this morning....very moving.

Just to let other King Tut lovers know there are backorders (at least on some of his QS buyers sites) on this thread as they are made in Japan for Bob. Hopefully it won't be too long but I don't know exactly where in Japan they come from and know they are all facing unbelievable life altering situations.
