If you are thinking about hand embroidery, I think the same question was asked earlier today:
Can I get crazy and use embroidery to hand quilt?
If you are thinking about machine embroidery, you could do that, but the back may not be very pretty. Do a test embroidery on a test sandwich first.

thanks I will give it a try
I've done it quite successfully. Just be sure to make sure you puddle up and support the body of the quilt well so there is no distortion.
