A Source for Danish Flower Thread UPDATED

I just ran across mention of a place to find Danish flower thread, which is no longer available in the U.S. as far as I know.

Here is the direct link to their website.  This should come up as the English version. (I hope!)  Apparently the colors are the same but with different numbers and new shades.

UPDATE:  Randi says that this shop in Connecticut carries Danish flower thread.  Hurrah!  A U.S. source!  Thanks very much, Randi.

Please tell people to buy it domestically. It is available at Scandinavian Stitches in CT http://scandinavianstitches.com/
She's a very nice woman; does a lot of consumer shows, but doesn't have a brick and mortar store. She opens her home periodically to her mailing list for holiday events.
I have some at eBay right now for a consignor (twisneedle), and I am still hoarding some in my store.

Oooo, thanks, Randi! I had no idea it could be gotten here in the U.S. I thought most shops sold out long ago. Good to know that a Connecticut shop carries it. I'll update the article with that info in case folks don't read our comments. Thanks!
