Hi FP+

If you are in the US, give Lanie Hurwitz a call (800) 250-7426 or visit his website www.ribbonsunlimited.com. Alternatively, see his eBay listing item #382830655691. You'll probably need to re-spool the ribbon onto your machine's spools, unless your machine takes the standard 2" spool with the 4mm center bore. Hope this points you in the right direction,

I keep hoping Lanie will get Blue/Red ribbon in silk one day.  So far, not enough customer requests.
