What kind of stabilizer would you use to quilt an embroidered block? Cut away? If so, would you use a pc the size of the block so it does not show through the top? Just wondering. I want to do some embroidered blocks for my next project.

If I were doing this, I would have placed the design on the diagonal of the square block.
If you are going to trim this block so that the design is on point, be sure to leave enough for the seam allowance so you aren't sewing into your design.
