Open up the density to around the 50ish mark then duplicate this complex fill. Set the stitch direction on one of them to 45 degrees and 135 degrees on the other one. Change your entry and exit points so that they will sew continuous without stopping. This set of cross-hatch fills will be set in the project tree to be the very first elements to sew and will be the "same" color as the garment being sewn on. This creates a kind of "fishnet" than knocks the fleece down and makes a nice base for the design to sit on top of.
