Hi from another Albertan! Welcome to ECS - I'm from outside of Calgary (Strathmore) and love ECS as most of our hobby shops here don't have nearly as good of prices or customer service! ECS is an online store and doesn't have a physical location.

I took a look at this pattern and it doesn't call for one of everything - for example it calls for 11 skeins of black :) When Kristi - who works at ECS - inputs the floss needed, she adds the number of skeins the manufacturer of the pattern says it needs, so in most cases it should be very accurate if you check all. If you need a needle they are in the Cross Stitch Supplies area of the menu on the left.

Good luck with your project - it looks like a fun one!

Hello Vvcrafty1970,

craftydivakat is correct in her response to you :) The supplies listed underneath the picture of the pattern is what is needed for the design. We get this information from the chart itself so, if there aren't any typographical errors on my part (sometimes, that happens!), the floss should is accurate. You will see the DMC number, title, the amount of skeins needed and the cost per skein.

169 pewter - lt 1 $0.49 (this means DMC 169 is the color Light Pewter and you only need 1 skein of it)
310 black 11 $0.49 (this means DMC 310 is the color Black and you need 11 skeins of that color)

If you hit Check All at the bottom of the supplies box, it will check all of the flosses in the box and then you can add them to your cart :) So, it sounds like you did what you needed to do! The needles are not listed in our supply area but they are on our website. Once you have added the pattern, fabric and floss to your cart, you can add any needles, hoops, etc that you need or want from our Cross Stitch Supplies page.

We are located in Dayton, OH and once an order is placed, it can take anywhere from 2-4 business days to ship out. If you put your email address in with your order then we will email a shipping notification when it ships with a tracking number. Hope this information helps! And thank you to craftydivakat for her wonderful response :)
