You did a wonderful job, and I would leave the heart. I'm sorry for the loss of your dear Lexie.

Very cute, love the color choices. I'm not sure where the cutwork is. Is the dog's feature cut out. Normally cutwork is done with thread and using richeu (not spelled right)bars. I've done it by hand but my machine has the special needles and so its so much easier on an emb machine and using the cutwork needles. It is very cute and will make a great wall hanging

How about making the heart small and down in one corner on the same block as the dog, then it would be there but not take center stage.

Beautiful as is.

If you were making it for a specific person, then I might move the heart to the bottom right (like a signature) and add the dog's name where the heart is. But since this is for a raffle, the heart works where it is.

Lovely work! The heart does draw the eye because of intense red.

I like the heart. It adds a bit of color to the center panel and says "I love Maltese" to me.

nice job! I think that the heart should be lighter pink so it does not stand so much

Beautiful quilt. I love the heart, but it would be cute on the back too. Your quilting idea sounds great. Your piecing skills are fabulous! So sorry about the loss of your beloved Lexie. I hope the quilt brings a lot of money for the rescue group.
