Yes one would have too, or you wouldn't get what ypu need.

Joan67,
This is a pattern. You can order the floss needed for it and then choose the calculator and enter the stitches as listed next to the picture. As you can see it is done on 14 count so this will help you choose a fabric. Then click "cross stitch fabric" next to the picture. It's a beautiful picture.

You have to order everything individually. If you need needles and a hoop you can order at the same time on this site. If you don't want to give them your address you can give them mine (I'm being silly) Very pretty project.

I didn't think you could Chit Chat unless you had an account at ECS. ?? Wouldn't you have to have given your address??

I don't think that I had to give my address when I signed up for Chit Chat. I have not ordered anything from them. Just enjoying chatting with everyone.

I do believe to get on ECS "chit chat" to chat you just need to enter your e-mail address and use a password that you have created.

Joan67 - where are you from? The way you spelled "coloured? with the "u" makes me think you didn't start off American. So good to know stitchers who come from different places, and some who still live in other places! Aren't the Internet and ECS wonderful?

Didn't or don't we have a stitcher that chatted with us on this "Chit Chat" who was/is from Australia?
