Try your regular foot, go slow, check the back often :wink:
As feline fanatic said, as long as you baste well, the risk of puckering is minimized.

Start in the center of the quilt and work out to minimize puckering too.
Center to the left, then center to the right.
Center up, then center down.
It helps to distribute the movement evenly :D:D:D

Or from the center of the top all the way down to the end.
Then the next row middle left all the way to the right...
The next row start from the bottom and go up
Then from the right all the way to the left.

It all depends on how you are going to quilt your top.
