I like to embroider on each block (sandwiched), then put the blocks together as in QAYG. It is much easier doing each block rather than the whole quilt. I only do the continious line stitching motif in the middle of each block. I always use the low-loft batting (poly) as it works much better..

However, on the "dog" quilt I just finished, I drew the outline of the dog onto waxed paper, pinned it to the plain blocks and did the FMQ and it worked out well. I worked with the whole quilt but next time I will do QAYG method.
