Questions
I've always bought kits to make things like this, so I'm a little unsure of how to proceed [as in exactly what I need to order]. My understanding is that the item that I'm about to purchase is just the pattern. That being said, it isn't clear if I need to purchase ALL the 27 colors listed + the pattern and the fabric, although that is my assumption at the moment.

Please let me know if I'm mistaken.

Yes you are correct. You have to buy the pattern, fabric and all the floss colors if you don't have them. Don't forget to add 6 inches to the width and 6 inches to the length when buying your fabric. Very cute pattern.

Thanks for your quick reply. It is the cutest noah's ark birth record pattern I've found, but buying all the materials separately makes it more money than I am willing to spend. It's really too bad.

You don't have to buy ALL of the floss colors at the same time but you will obviously have to buy the fabric. If you have a Michaels or Joanns near you check the Sunday paper for their discount coupons and buy the fabric with one of those. Just be careful you get the right size of fabric so you don't run short (there are fabric calculators here atECS). I like to start my projects in the center and work outwards. Check the design and see what 2 or 3 colors there are in the middle and just buy those colors. Again, use the coupons to help save $$. After you've done some stitching, look to see what colors come next. Yes, it can be very expensive to buy everything all at once. This way you can do it gradually. And you will find that as you purchase the floss, you'll build up a stash and be all ready for the next project!!

Check with Customer Service to see if this is the correct price. It seems a little high.
