? about embroidering a tea towel

Good Morning!
Okay, so I have this idea and I'm looking for some ideas to help me get this done. I bought a Moda tea towel in Florida:

I'd like to embroider this and then lightly quilt it to make a wall hanging. I do have two so I can practice on one.
I think I will need to line this before I start to embroider because the weave is slightly big. Maybe perle cotton would be too thick. I'm thinking of trying some Sulky 12 weight cotton.

Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance,

I haven't tried that, but I would try the light iron-on fusible interfacing (like Pellon featherweight) (available at JoAnn Fabrics). It's very pretty and a good idea you have on how to use it!

Yes, that would work well! Thanks!
