    Those are sure nice! So pretty and I love the fairies.

    I know next to nothing about machine embroidery, so I couldn't begin to suggest anything, but they still look good and the baby and parents will love it!

    That is so sweet of you to take the time to create this beautiful quilt. I think all of your blocks look great! I love each of them. I am like Celeste, I know next to nothing about machine embroidery so sorry I am of no help. Buttercreamcakeartist,(Miranda), machine embroiders all of the time, maybe she has a suggestion that will help.

    The friend I am making this for is so excited about finaly having her first grandchild. I wanted this quilt to be something speical I knew DIL loves fairies. She told me no hurry she knows I'm busy what she doesn't know is that I'm stalling waiting for the baby so I can do the speical block.

    here is the pic of the backing and sashing
