This site links to an old eBay auction of an Autumn Reflections kit. It has a mockup of the cover page and some information about the chart and materials needed. If you click on Buy It Now, you'll see a photograph of the threads and beads used. I've copied that photograph and pasted it below, just in case this auction page disappears.
