Heart Bubbles

I intended to make a simple stacked coins pattern, using scrappy pink & mint fabrics with white strapping & border. I thought I would like the way the color fabric strips kind of pop up from the white background. But after I finished the piecing, I thought it looked a little boring. So I appliqued hearts on it, using a light pink voile, wonder-under and a decorative heart machine stitch. Now I love it! I think the hearts look like bubbles or balloons floating in the sky.
