Dittoes! I like the idea of echoing the heart as a quilt pattern.
And thank you for the picture of your quilt and the source of your inspiration. Seeing your quilt motivated me to print out the pattern. Your use of color is a real motivator <g>.

That's beautiful, kimmers! I've done one of these blocks which is on a little sampler my DD has in her room, it looks great as a whole quilt! As for the quilting, if you really want to make the hearts puffy, I would outline quilt AND echo at 1/4". I'm currently quilting a bed quilt with appliquéd hearts like that and they really POP! I've got wool batting in as well which is really fluffy.

I think your heart quilt is so pretty, I love the colours too :D

If you really want the hearts to pop you could use trapunto method by adding an extra layer of batting just to the hearts before layering up the quilt as normal :D
