:mrgreen: Wow about the doodle. Would you believe I have seen a site where they offered nearly your exact doodle as a longarm stitch choice? Thanks!

http://www.thequiltstudio.net/patterns.htm It's called crazy puzzle, just before half way down. Of course now everyone can tell me how it doesn't look the same. :wink:

I just wanted to add that yesterday I visited with a friend of mine, who has way more experience than my pitiful self :wink: and she said what you did is called Stippling or meandering. Meandering is when you used that style on a large scale and Stippling is when it's a reduced scale resulting in more stitches per inch. She loaned me a couple of great books, so now I need to get a move on making my blocks.
