I love what everyone is doing with their 15 minutes. So inspiring.
As for me, I have gone ahead and set my scrappy heart blocks, and I tried to think outside of the box, but I am not thrilled with the way it came out.

It doesn't read this way, but it is supposed to be alternating sets (snowball block, bordered block, snowball block) but the borders are too thin (
due to my own errors) so it isn't giving me the alternating look I had pictured in my mind:

Oh well, that is what experimenting is for!
I'm finishing this off and starting a new with the lessons that I learned, there are plenty of scraps where these came from!

Well, I really like it. It looks great!
It may not be what you had envisioned but it is a very sweet looking quilt.....perfect for a baby quilt :0).
Happy Sewing
One man's trash is another man's treasure, as they say. I think the way it looks is totally wonderful. I would thik a dark border made out of the 4 colors of scraps made with scrappy swuares and then a white outside border and you are in like flint!

I love it! Don't throw it out.
really? you don't like this?? oh my, it's LOVELY!
Put a nice scrappy border of all three colors mixed, all around. Wow!~ it's a knock out. You turned simple heart blocks into some thing, n one has ever scene. You've jumped completely out of the box!
It's beautiful! I love the way it looks.
I love how it looks, too!
I love it. I always say, u never learn anything from doing stuff right....its the mistakes that bring the lessons. Hearts are so cheery and nice. Great job.

Look again we all love it; it's 10 : 1, might you be wrong!? Glen's idea of adding a border might just do the trick for you.
I really like the way this quilt turned out. Some times it is nice to get surprises.. This one is definitely a pleasant one!
I love it! I like the little hints of color in the bordered blocks- it's so fresh and interesting! It might not be what you envisioned, but it's still wonderful.
Thanks everyone for the nice feedback :) You are all so kind!
I make a lot of quilts that way, lol.
The blocks are beautiful though.
