Without the hearts, but I would have the hearts outline quilted in the snowballs.

I would like blue hearts. I think the snowballs are to white. Maybe even just quilt blue hearts on it.

Both are nice and look great. Some "fancy" quilting in the white areas would really pop.

Yes, I think with the variety of colors it does seem juvenile. RED hearts would be my choice.

I agree with this idea. I believe this would be very pretty with some varigated thread.
