That was plan B, if I don't use the hearts then I'll try a special motif in the white space. Though then the decision is white thread or blue?
I think feathered hearts with blue thread would look nice. Although sometimes less is more and maybe go with white thread! I know I am no help, but I like your quilt! :-D
