We are thinking along the same lines! Of course, you have experience with Redwork, and I am just beginning. As for quilting with embroidery, my very first quilt was made as follows: alternating 9-patch blocks made of color-coordinated small floral calico prints and muslin; the alternating solid squares were matching muslin on which I hand-embroidered different flowers - a rose, a lilac, etc. It was my first quilt, made in the 1970s, and the last quilt I made until three years ago (life got busy with a career and children!). It was a quite lovely quilt, and I hope to duplicate it, but my embroidery will have to be done on machine, as arthritis prohibits handwork these days. SO, this is one pattern you could try that incorporates embroidery. HOWEVER, I went to Google and clicked on IMAGES then typed in "edwork Embroidery Quilts"and all kinds of beautiful quilts popped up: I really like the Irish chain quilt with embroidery in the alternating blocks (similar to the one I made in the 70s) that appears, but I also really like the ones where the blocks were separated by sashing. I just bought an embroidery machine, and in my search for designs to import, I came across "Redwork" -which I knew nothing about- and it just calls to me, so I think my first Redwork project is going to be to make a Redwork embroidery throw quilt. I can't wait to try it! So, just Google "Google Images", type in "Redwork Embroidery Quilts,"and you will get several ideas. Good luck!
