I checked at the designer's website. It calls for 32 count dark blue linen, full stitches, stitched over two threads. It uses DMC thread which ECS list under the pattern. I think Kristi forgot to include the Kreinik Blending Filament which the designer list on her website.
You could use Aida fabric instead if you wish. I use it for all of my cross stitching projects.
I put this pattern on my wish list.
