Default Historical Quilting Patterns and Motifs

I've been working with fabrics from the 20s and 30s and now have my quilt sandwiched and ready to machine quilt. I'm not going with hand quilting, which would have been more appropriate for that era, but I don't want to do a modern quilt design either. I'm going to machine stitch on a machine that is not suitable for FMQ, so I have to have a pretty simple design. What motifs were popular for this period? Is there a good reference on quilting patterns for different eras? Thanks.
