I love Baptist Fans on a quilt but there is no way I would ever have the patience to hand quilt them. I have seen both a machine pattern for them and someone doing them freehand on the net.
Baptist Fan was my first thought, too. I love it & think you just can never go wrong with it... especially with a classic pattern like Churn Dash (yours is fabulous, BTW). Please post again when you get this little gem quilted.
