Stippling is a technique used to fill in large background areas of a quilt. It is a meandering line of very curvy stitching, where the lines never cross each other. I suppose you could do it in hand quilting, but I've only seen it used in free-motion machine quilting. It takes practice to make the curves smooth and to not quilt yourself into a corner!
