Does anyone embroider with quilts?

During Covid I’ve been working on embroidery blocks and assembling them into quilts. Does anyone enjoy this hobby or a variation?

I know a quilter, but the embroidery blocks is quite unique!

I'm working on that very thing right now. I've done a mixture of applique and embroidery on different blocks. I'm now doing birds and blossoms. I shall put it all together when I have enough blocks, but I intend to make a wall-hanging not a bed quilt.

This sounds wonderful. I would certainly appreciate seeing a picture of your finished work.

I can try but I don't have much skill with a camera!

I would love to see your work.

My best friend turns out some stunning embroidered block quilts. I'm amazed at how quickly she can get them done.

I used to do a lot of embroidery but the eyes started giving out and I needed a blood transfusion from the needle pricks in the fingers....LOL.

Lovely work! My son-in-law's mother belongs to a quilting guild. Not a day goes by that she is not working on a piece. It truly is an art unto itself.

I work on quilting almost every day, and I hand quilt them all. Some become gifts, and some I sell.
