Hi there. I ordered this kit last year. Unless the supplies list has changed, it is not complete. The purple colours in the skirt (actually blue, but still lovely) are a special type of silk. When you get the pattern, you will see this and you will have to go to the thread company's website to find out that they no longer make it, but they supply a substitute you can use that is generally available at yarn stores (but not at Michael's, at least not in Canada). You will also have to buy the gold thread at a yarn store as well as a beading needle if you do not have one. If you have never used beads in a cross stitch project before, there a number of good instructional videos on Youtube. This project is a challenge, but I am enjoying stitching it and it will be worth it when it is finished.
