The second idea is a little more 'artsy'. Find some silhouettes that you like and applique them to the top. You'd end up with silhouette framed in the flower blocks. Should be gorgeous when done.

I'm quilting it with off-white thread and that seems to be little more calming to my eye. Thanks for the suggestions. I'll post a photo when I'm done. I'm doing a simple computerized embroiderydesign in each plain, floral block which is taking some time.
