Second picture.... top row... hearts and red/blue star appear to be smaller blocks. Are they? If so, you might have to add small strips to even out the block sizes.I agree that moving the ones with little flowers around might make a difference. Overall, very pretty.

I think that the blocks are beautiful. The one that stands out the most is the heart block. Because it is rounded and the rest pointed, I would use the heart block as the focal point and put it in the middle (or as close to the middle as possible). the rest of the blocks are great as they are.

I don't think there is anything wrong with the blocks themselves....they just need their placement tweaked a bit....I think the 3 on the bottom ....the ones that have larger areas of one color....need to be split up.....surround them more with blocks that have little pieces of color....it will tone them down and then they won't stand out so much

She absolutely loves the hearts!! The bottom three are the ones I don't think fit (on the second photo) I'll admit, I'm ready to be finished on this and I was looking for blocks that went together easily. I like the idea of breaking up the points I'll try that in the morning. I don't think she would notice anything wrong. But it would drive me nuts!!

The blocks and colors are fine. What is looking 'off' to you is the fact that you have one block with curves, and the rest are straight lines. I would make 3 more blocks with straight lines and put the heart block in the center. With your sashing separating the blocks, it will be beautiful.
