Have you already appliquéd the hearts or just fused them on? If not, make the quilt sandwich, then stitch in the ditch for your straight lines, and appliqué stitch each heart. It helps to have a busy-print backing with matching thread so you don't see the stitching as much. When I appliqué I often do it last as the quilting, depending, of course, on what the project is.

Sew sweet! Echoing would be my choice around the hearts then the rest maybe feathers or stars along the borders. SITD for the interior rectangles.

Adorable baby quilt, love scrappy. Maybe echo the hearts and then SID on vertical seams and then two straight vertical lines fairly close together down the middle of the strippy panels.

A very, very SWEET quilt. I would quilt once arounr each rectagle and once around each heart. Hearts in the border.

Now that I have read all of the responses I see that many people have the same idea that I have. Can't wait to see it completed, please post when done.
