Out damn stain!!

I finally started quilting my Charming Hearts quilt. I stitched in the vicinity of the ditch around the pieced hearts. That was easy to do. 
 Now that it's pretty much stabilised I pulled the pins out of the middle and started marking for some more quilting. I'm not ready to tackle free motion quilting in the middle of this so I'm going with some nice simple and continuous petal shapes. I have  templates coming for the setting triangles and one of the borders, hopefully they will be here soon.
Look at what my naughty walking foot left right in the middle of the quilt!! I hope I can get it out.

The two heart shapes are so simple and pleasingly pretty. Hope the stain comes out too!

Is it oil? If so this is the remedy I used when I got black oil from a new pair of pinking shears on my sister's half constructed wedding dress - applied neat fairy liquid onto the fabric and scratched out the stain with the end of my fingernail and then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water and dry naturally - good luck
