    I agree with Meanmom.
    You could also use a conglomeration of dark navy blues but I like the variety of blacks the best.

    I agree with everyone who suggested grey. Grey is used a lot in modern quilting as a background color. It's very minimalistic. It goes with everything. I think it would look great with your great heart blocks. I vote for grey!!
