Lovely piecing!

I would quilt in the same color as the background so the piecing stays the focus. The downside of that is that whatever quilting you do isn't going to show up very much. But what can I say? I just love feathers, so I'd do red feathers in the red portions & grey "fancy scallops" (Cindy Needham does these -- they're a basic scallop with a line down the center & 2 arcs going from the center to either side) in the grey/black/white sections.
I went back & forth on the center heart. You could do trapunto to raise it up, or maybe fill with either cross hatching or pebbles. I just wasn't sure on that.
