I also did the sashings. Lots of work, but it came out beautiful. Have no pictures, but now I am making one for my other granddaughter. I will do this one on the embroidery machine too. You don't need stabilizer when you put all three layers in the hoop. Strong hands are a must. I used 5x7 hoop, top and bottom layer cotton and warm and natural batting.

That's what the whole cloth, white on white quilt is about. The designs are embroidered on and makes the quilt. It is a tradition where a young woman soon to marry had to make one for her wedding night. Go for it!
