    Blue thread for quilting the hearts in the snowballs. Very nice quilt, she will love it.

    That was plan B, if I don't use the hearts then I'll try a special motif in the white space. Though then the decision is white thread or blue?

    I really love hearts and put them everywhere I can, but on this one, I like the first layout.
    There is something kind of neat on blue and white by themselves.

    What if you and other family members wrote a special message on the blank white blocks...that would make it very special or put the same blue as hearts...one color of the blue not all the blues

    My vote is without the hearts. It's a beautiful quilt and I'm sure your sister will love it! :-)

    Without the hearts then you can use that space to show off quilting design.
