Here is a link to give you an idea of what it looks like. Looks much nicer actually quilted on a quilt but at least this gives you an idea

Oh I just found a link with a picture of a quilt quilted with the baptist fan design. This will give you a good idea of what it is.

I like the BF idea, but I believe the 1/4 inch is more CW traditional. Either way, I suggest stitching it in dark brown or black. Perhaps you would do an oversized stitch to make it look very rustic. Any way you do it, it looks great all ready.
