I just checked a book out of our library. It is called Quilting Designs from the Past by Jenny Carr Kinney. It has over 300 historically accurate quilting designs from 1810-1940. It is a fascinating study of quilting...no meandering or stippling... instead the designs are well planned and many are not that difficult.

they did a lot of shadow quilting, or SID, but I think a Baptist fan or clam shell would also be nice!

You have a beautiful quilt, and an adorable fur baby! By the way, shadow quilting is my favorite because I too, cannot stay in the ditch. It is following the seam with the pressure foot, so you have an even distance everywhere.

I believe the most common quilting design of the 30's is the Baptist Fan and would work well with your quilt. Otherwise 1/4" out from selected parts.

Lovely quilt. I love the look. I was also thinking Baptist fan or clamshell but not sure how those patterns work with machine quilting. I would so some cable or vine in the boarder.
