I haven't embroidered in years but everyone says they do it so that the threads don't show could that be possible?
Hmm, I see, but if you don't carry your threads I wouldn't have thought it a problem. Anyway, would be interesting to see what everyone else has to say. There have been a lot of quilts featuring embroidery lately, so if you don't get enough feedback with this thread, you might try pm to some of the quilters who have posted pics of theirs.

Would love to see what you have been working on (I love pics.).
