I use to do it more years ago. Recently did a blanket for my new granddaughter's baptism. I made it of two layers of polar fleece and did a large bunch of white roses made of ribbon in one corner and 3 white roses with rose bud in the oppisite corner. I then embroidered the stems and leaves in two colors of green ribbon. When I sewed it together I used a diamond quilting across the whole blanket and used the wide white ribbon you use to see on blankets years ago as the binding. It came out beautiful. Sorry did not take a picture, ask me why???? I just did not think to do it. Sad thing is they baptised the baby much later and it was summer so they never used the blanket.
