I don't embroider, so don't know if it works for all types of embroidery. My recommendation is to try it. Spray starching is definitely not enough, though. A 1:1 solution of Sta-Flo and water works for my machine applique, and I expect that is where you would start if doing embroidery too.
Keep in mind that I wash my quilts after they are finished. If you don't want to wash your embroidery, then you may not want to use starch.
