do you mean an all over battern I assume you do.
If you mean all over.........it has been my experience as a quilt judge that the all over rmq is the most mis used design the quilter may select. Some designs are not for every quilt - or rather "one design fits all". For example doing a meandering on a 1930 or before reproduction quilt is not appropriate because it was not used in that period. The same for prints. If the quilt is a more masculine look then an all over of roses of flowers or even feathers may not be compatiable with the look of the quilt. However, if one is making quilts for charity then the all over meandering probaby works.
So, I don't think it is a case of one's "favorite" fmq design but carefully choosing the one that enhances the basic quit. It may depend on what the quilt is for and to whom it wil be given.The many many all over designs may be easy to do but they are not always appropriate for the quilt.
