Good idea, Mary - Elle also suggested lace over the background fabric, also a good idea.

How far along are you with your blocks? And may we please see a pic?
Here are pictures of my blocks. I have 8 done. I don't work on it often but I have fun when I do. These are cell phone pictures so the colors didn't show up as bright as they really are. I am doing the applique by machine and then satin stitching around each piece. then I use my built in stitches on my machine to accent them. I love to machine embroidery.
