    I made an embroidered quilt called "Floral Elegance". I had it quilted and she quilted it right through the embroidery designs. It looks beautiful. I hope you can see the quilting in this photo. It is now hanging in the Colorado State capitol for the quilt display.

    Thanks Beth---
    Maybe I will quilt through it after all after seeing your quilt (which is beautiful BTW).

    I don't quilt on my embroidery, but when I was at our local LQS she did an overall and it looked great!

    Cross hatching you will not notice the quilting has gone over the embroidery. I have seen it done and you won't be sorry.
