Im not the maker of this quilt but made a similar one recently. Stabilizers are so confusing! However, for this quilt I used a medium tearaway and a floating lite tearaway. The reason I made this choice is because a local quilt shop displayed the same quilt and I asked the quilt maker. All that being said that design was a filled design and the one we are now admiring is redwork. Hmmmm That has prompted me to investigate. One thing I can advise us to pre wash the background fabric to take care of any shrinking before embroidering. Im going to do a test with the redwork and 2 tearaways. I dont like using a cutaway with white fabric. It will show wont it?
