Seems like I've seen the fan pattern on a lot of antique quilts and I've been thinking it would be very quick to do on a longarm, but it might involve a lot of wrestling with the bulk of the quilt on a domestic machine. 70 Classic Quilting Patterns by Gwen Marston/Joe Cunningham Dover Publications 1987 has some nice ones. You didn't tell us how big or what the quilt pattern is.
