Here are a few I have done. The orange and yellow one is stacked 4 patch blocks (but you could easily use embroidery here instead) - they are set alternately with quarter square triangles.
The one with the embroidered quilt blocks is the warm wishes pattern.
The anchor one is set on point, alternating with string pieced blocks.
You could also do an Irish Chain and add embroidery to the center blocks.
What about the shadow block?
