How about a little quirk and place the hearts every which way; over a block ditch, upside down, downsite up, sideways, half a heart one way half the other way, etc, etc; have some fun. I love the way it looks now and just try some other placement of the hearts. Be adventureous.

Ditto! - Or place just in outer squares...will leave a few hearts left over. Applique them on back of quilt along with label.....just another idea.

If you had still enough of the light fabric left I would suggest the following:
In lanes 2 and 3 put light hearts on the dark fabric and dark hearts on the light fabrics.
Leave lanes 4 and 5 blank.
Repeat the pattern from lanes 2 and 3 in lanes 6 and 7.
It's just an alternative.
