You would not use a walking foot for stippling. You need to do stippling with free motion -- i.e., a hopping darning foot. Some quilters leave the feed dogs up but most drop the feed dogs for free motion; try it both ways to see what works best for you.

You can quilt using a walking foot, but only straight lines or large curving lines. For this type of quilting, you start at one end of the quilt and end at the other side.
