Embroidered mystery quilt is quilted!
Here it is: finished!  I just put in the last few stitches on the white binding-I'm so glad this is completed! Hand embroidery and  machine quilting team up quite well! Here's a close up of one of the baskets and the diagonal curvy lines I quilted through the embroideries.

I LOVE your mystery quilt!
What a beautiful job you've done, Miri! It is really lovely.
It's just GORGEOUS!! I was looking for this quilt on your blog the other day, as I may be quilting a charity quilt that has embroidered squares and wondered how it could be done. So nice to see it all completed. Your quilting is perfect for it!
