Yup that is what I did.....I keep the feed dogs up on all my FMQ. For me it just works better, the stitches are more consistent and I get better results. This is just my personal opinion. That said I am going to practice some with the feed dogs down when I use fleece, I want to see if it shifts the backing.
Everybody gave me such good advice so I cant wait to make another one.This time I will definitely spray baste and pin.

I am making my label now for the quilt and I am calling it......... MURPHY
