some years ago when The Stencil Co introduced their meandering stencil the manufacturer always called it the "worm stencil". Customers asked why you need a stencil for meandering. It became the most popular stencil in the catalog and might still be. I drew more sizes for the current catalog.
Then customers started saying that it helped them to get the rhythm of meandering and eventually were able to abandon the stencil.
I am awkward meandering because it is somewhat like rubboing you head and stomach at the same time. You have to find your rhythm.
The above is just a bit of quilt trivia that might enhance life.
