I also did the sashings. Lots of work, but it came out beautiful. Have no pictures, but now I am making one for my other granddaughter. I will do this one on the embroidery machine too. You don't need stabilizer when you put all three layers in the hoop. Strong hands are a must. I used 5x7 hoop, top and bottom layer cotton and warm and natural batting.
