And thank you for the picture of your quilt and the source of your inspiration. Seeing your quilt motivated me to print out the pattern. Your use of color is a real motivator <g>.

That's beautiful, kimmers! I've done one of these blocks which is on a little sampler my DD has in her room, it looks great as a whole quilt! As for the quilting, if you really want to make the hearts puffy, I would outline quilt AND echo at 1/4". I'm currently quilting a bed quilt with appliquéd hearts like that and they really POP! I've got wool batting in as well which is really fluffy.

I think your heart quilt is so pretty, I love the colours too :D
If you really want the hearts to pop you could use trapunto method by adding an extra layer of batting just to the hearts before layering up the quilt as normal :D
