Without hearts. The quilt is so soft looking without the hearts. Somehow I think the hearts overpower the pattern of the quilt. Just MHO

I love your quilt. It is soooo nice but i vote for without the hearts. Quilting hearts though in the middle to replace the applique hearts would look great. Happy B-day to your sister.

I love the hearts but would definatly do them in a Blue fabric to keep the calmness of the blue. Like Wedgwood

I personally don't care for hearts, I would put a dove on it.

If you used blue hearts that would be great!!

I prefer without hearts unless you can make blue hearts... the colors distract from the blue

you could always use the hearts on pillows or pillow shams...just a thought. ~peg

my personal choice would be without the coloured hearts but I would quilt them in instead probably in blue

i'm with you...leave the hearts off. especially since she loves blue. the snowballs go with the cool tones of the blue. beautiful as is.

At first, I thought without the hearts - until I saw them. I LOVE the quilt with the hearts. You did a beautiful job and however you finish it will be beautiful. Maybe you need to make one without and one with. lol
