Default Making a crazy quilt....

So I got this bright idea to make a crazy quilt with tons of embellishments that I've collected over the past year. I have almost all of my blocks finished, hand stitched them to a solid fabric. I want to sandwich my top with batting and a backing fabric. My question is: When I start to embroider and add embellishments, Do I sew on embellishments, trinkets, charms and embroider, etc before I sandwich or do I sandwich and then add the decorations/embellishments???? I've ordered a few books on crazy quilting but none of them have arrived yet. I guess I'm jumping a little ahead here but I wanted to start getting my floss, trinkets, charms, etc etc etc together but if I have to sandwich and quilt first, no use in getting that stuff together just yet. Thanks for any help! ! ! .........Patti
