Japanese Embroidery CD

The Japanese Embroidery Center just announced on Facebook that a CD about their 2007 exhibit of Japanese Embroidery in the UK is available at the JE website. I don't know if this is a new product or something they are just mentioning, but fans of traditional Japanese Embroidery will want to check it out.
