It will tend to slide around so use the spray baste and pin or baste also. Don't use satin stiches or any stitches that are too close together. The minky will pucker and look horrible.
Good luck.
I was thinking of big meandering the front of the quilt is 8 1/2 inch blocks with photos in five of them.
