Default Need help with baby quilt I made that needs repair

I made this quilt in 2013 for my GGD and she loves it! However, she wrote on it with markers (don't know which kind) and her mother has washed it to within an inch of its life. It is still beautiful although much lighter. Two seams have opened and my GGD cut a piece out of it with a scissors. The back was fleece.

1. The fleece has pilled and looks and feels awful. Thinking that I will remove the binding and add new fleece to the back.

Has anyone else done this and what do you think?

2. I'm going to cover the cut out piece with a heart of similar color. No problem.

3. Either way (new fleece or not) I am going to FMQ a zig zag line over all seams.

Photos: Original quilt; quilt now; back and hole.
