Stipple or meandering is not always the easiest design to start with. I can be hard to keep the loops smooth and even. I found it easier to do an all over pattern that had places to rest before the next motif. A good one is stars with loops between them. I put little triangles of masking tape on my quilt top at regular intervals. The triangles were for the center of the simple 5 point stars that we all learned to do in grade school. You just do the star around the tape and do a loop of two over to the next star spot. A simple flower or leaf shape with loops between is easy too. Good Luck!
