I always wondered about quilting over embroidery too so searched for others to get ideas. What you did looks great to me. Doesn't take away from the embroidery designs. On mine which was basically a colored redwork design I created a crosshatch to go right across the design. Since I used the same color thread as the background fabric it blended right in. Others have echoed around the design as you did.

The quilting you did on the embroidery project is perfect. I think what is important is to get close to the embroidery and not go over it. You did a beautiful job on it.

You did a perfect job! I especially like how you used the green thread around the pines! And like you, I like to see the back--it's pretty there too!

How wonderfully you enhanced a beautiful quilt! I love the embroidered snowman-going to have to find that pattern!

She had embroidered in the corners, so no quilting done there!
