When you buy the pattern you should go on youtube.com and write how to start cross stitching and you will get the idea. To me this is a cute pattern to stick your neck for it and be Curious about what going on in the world. Beside your pattern you should bye the rest of the cross stitch supplies that the pattern is asking about to start it. As fabric, floss and needle. Have fun.

Based on your question, I assume that you thought you were purchasing an iron-on pattern. Is that correct? What you received was a pattern where you look at the graph and then stitch the design on your own fabric.

Miss C is correct -- you can find a YouTube video that will demonstrate how to do this. Or, crossstitch.com might help you.

This pattern is really cute. Why don't you purchase a piece of aida cloth and try it.

If my assumption is incorrect, please ignore my post.

Mrs Nancy. I suggest to her to buy the pattern and start it. I find it it is so cute too.

The poster asked --How do I transfer the design to the fabric? There was no transfer included.

I assume that means that he or she has already purchased the pattern and was expecting an iron-on transfer. That is why I said to ignore me if I was incorrect.

Pre-stamped projects are in a separate category. See the list on the upper left screen. What you got is called Counted cross stitch. This one is pretty easy. Get some beige 14 count Aida cloth, & floss, & give it a try.

Fold your fabric in half lengthwise, then fold crosswise. The folded corner will be the center of your fabric. Mark it with a pin and open up your fabric. Now look at the pattern. There should be an arrow on top and on one of the sides that indicate the center of the pattern. Follow those two arrows and where they converge is the center of the pattern. I often mark that square with a highlighter. That square on the pattern is the stitch you will make on the center of your fabric. Hope that helps. It's a cute pattern and should be easy to do. Read the directions thoroughly and watch youtube videos for more information.

robertn633 -- are you still there? It seems that many of us are curious as to what you were actually expecting vs the pattern leaflet that you received.

I interpreted that you wanted an iron on pattern vs another poster thinking you were expecting a pre-stamped piece
