Hello and Welcome to our group

This lovely pattern is not printed on the fabric. Despite what the description says it is not a good choice for the beginner. It is quite large and involves a lot of shading, which means changing the floss frequently.

My suggestion is to find something simple and smaller. Recommend a project that only has a few colors. You will be happy with that. Look on this site or buy a small kit at a local store. Very soon you will be able to move over to the Eiffel Tower.

Thank you so much Nancye G! I appreciate the advice - I'll start with something a little less ambitious :)

I agree with Nancye G. it is beautiful but not for a beginner. I would put it in my wish list for later when you have more experience. When I started stitching I started small and worked my way up to the large many page projects.
