Hi Ginnie!! Most of my quilting is called meandering. It looks like jigsaw puzzle pieces. It is really hard to mess up, except for the speed, and you just have to practice. Your goal is to have consistent stitches, and I am far from there!! But if you look at it after the quilt has been washed and shrinks just a hair, it usually looks good!! I do use a quilting/darning foot, and drop the feed dogs. And go for it!! Try something small to start, like a wall hanging or table runner. It is fun.
