I machine quilted (DM) my four 'trip around the world' quilts diagonally through every over row of squares (squares are 3-1/2 inches finished), so stitching is 5 inches apart. Hobbs 80/20 says quilting a minimum of 4 inches apart. Is this going to be a problem with batting shifting when washed? I thought about tying to add additional stabilizing but I really don't want to.
These quilts won't see a lot of use or washing. What do you think?

I think I am going to stitch in the ditch vertically between each row--not taking the bindings off but starting and stopping at the binding. I also found a row I skipped on the original quilting on one of them, so I'll look all of the quilts over.
