The advantage as I see it in this style is that I can cut the embroidery focus pieces in irregular shapes. This project may take awhile, because I am making blocks as I find the embroidered items and I am trying to use vintage fabrics for the rest of the block.

Recently there was a discussion about hankies in quilts, and I imagine you could get some ideas from that.

Best wishes on your project -- you are lucky to have a stash of embroidery to start with!
