Highland Munro is part of my Scottish Landscapes collection. Munro is another word for mountains over 3000ft in Scotland, and some people enjoy trying to climb every one! I am more about stitching them… This pattern is inspired by a trip I took to Braemar and another to the lowlands. Braemar is a village in Aberdeenshire and is generally very, very cold. But, I visited as winter turned into spring and the whole landscape was buzzing. The colours of this pattern are more inspired by the bright and warm days that lay ahead, than the frosty snow tops that were just starting to melt.

This embroidery kit comes with all the tools, supplies, and information you need to help you create a beautiful piece of art for your home. This pattern is suitable for anyone from complete beginners upwards. So, do not worry if you have not tried embroidery or sewing before. You will be helped along with lots of resources like detailed stitch and colour guides, which are all included with your purchase. I hope you love this completing this kit as much as I enjoyed designing it! Stitch your own version to hang in your home.

Some frequently asked questions:

Do I have to trace the pattern onto my fabric?
No! Your pattern comes pre-printed and cut on embroidery stabiliser. You simply peel off the backing and stick down on the cotton fabric. The stabiliser helps make stitching easier and completely disappears when immersed in water.

What else do I need asides from what's in the kit?
Nothing! Your thread comes pre-cut into smaller pieces so it's completely possible to complete any of my craft kits without extra materials. This makes the kits a perfect gift or activity to do with friends for the first time.

That being said, you may wish to cut off the ends of your threads as you finish using them or cut the excess fabric after finishing your pattern. Then, you will need scissors.

What age is this suitable for?
That's up to you. We recommend a minimum age of 12. The kit comes with a brand new (aka sharp) embroidery needle, so make sure the child is able to be trusted with this. Ultimately, the final decision is yours! Why not grab an extra kit and make it a fun group activity?

I've never done embroidery before! Can I do this?!
100% you can. Almost everyone starts out with an embroidery kit these days. I did! It was a much, much worse kit than this one (with poor instructions and not enough thread) but I still managed to make something passable as a complete beginner.

Just like crochet, cooking, or painting, embroidery is a skill that anyone can learn with a little help. This kit has all the information and more that even the most nervous beginner will need to make a wonderful first piece of embroidered art.

Are you a sustainable business?
We try very hard to be! Creating worthwhile sustainable and high-quality products is central to the mission of Jasmine Esme X Embroidery. All packaging and contents are organic, recycled, compostable, or a combination of the three.

Our packaging is 100% recycled and recyclable and produced in Britain. This is why you won't notice any outward branding - ink reduces how recyclable cardboard is. We also intentionally use a downloadable PDF for our embroidery stitch guide to reduce unnecessary repeat printing. The only printed materials in each kit are the colour guide and pattern-specific instructions.

Our organic cotton is grown in Asia and all other materials are manufactured in the UK/ EU.

Anything else I should know?
These kits are entirely designed, made, and sent out by just me (Jasmine) from my studio in Scotland! Supporting this little business is supporting a real person and I quite literally happily beam for every order that comes in. Please consider trying to buy your crafts kits from small, independent sellers like me as often as you're able. It means the world!

What if I have a question about the kits/ patterns/ embroidery?
Please send me a message if you have any further questions! It's the quickest way to reach me and I'm always happy to help in any way I can.
