What are your thoughts on using machine embroidery for quilting on a very piecy busy, lots of seams scrappy quilt? I've been thinking of just outlining and SITD quilting. I've combined finished blocks into approx 2'x2' units and plan to QAYG with the top and batting only and add the backing and complete the quilting by following secondary diagonal patterns across the quilt. I have a Babylock Ellisimo so embroidery could work but I don't think the pattern would show much and I'm concerned about all the seams. Some places are very bulky; don't want to tax my machine. The pattern is Orca Bay by Bonnie Hunter. Your comments would be appreciated. Thanks as always!
