Quilt a OBW??

Quilt a OBW??
I'm a fairly new quilter and just finished my first One Block Wonder. I love it, but I'm not sure how to quilt it. I don't know what I'll end up doing with it. Probably either hang it over the railing in our summer cabin or use it as a lap quilt. Since I'm a new quilter, I'm a little concerned that the seams may not be that sturdy, so I think it needs to be quilted somehow. I think the quilting will be more utilitarian than aesthetic. What do you suggest?

You have a beautiful OBW!
What about stippling it all? or an all over meander design?
Here's a link to my OBW ... it;s done with an all over feather sort of a design ...

Gorgeous OBW
I have done one with a stitch in the ditch and I did this one with what I call is my spicky stipple, by putting the points in the stipple it give me somewhere to stop and think about which direction to go to next
