    I love it with the hearts. But...what if you just did blue hearts to keep it blue and white? Then some echo quilting around each? Or just a beautiful quilted design in each snowball would look nice too. Of course, in blue thread so it would show up!

    Ditto the juvenile. How about appliqued or embroidered flowers? But quilting to fill the space is good too.

    I love hearts, but I see what some are saying about the coloured ones. Maybe do blue hearts appliqued with the centres cut out (so it looks like a blue outline with a white heart shaped centre)...I'm not very good with explanations, so apologies if it sounds weird.

    I totally agree with this! Also makes it look more childish with the hearts.

    I vote for hearts!
