    I like the circle because it coordinates with the circles or dots in your fabric. It seems better balanced in the center. Are you doing it by hand? It is really pretty!

    Circle...

    I think the heart is too large for the block..

    If you could find a heart stencil where the point of the heart would be toward the center of the block instead of at an angle to the corner...that might look great.

    You all are terrific when a question is put before you.
    This is a Wonderful Idea!

    I'm with you...not into hearts so much. The quilt is beautiful...I'm sure she will love it no matter what.

    I like the circle best - I think it offsets the geometric shapes better. The heart is very pretty, but in this particular design, makes your eye go too many places, and looks more disjointed. Just my opinion...
