I do have a Viking foot, and the stitches are fine back and front. It's the backing fabric that is pulling before the
quilt top. I have adjusted the pressure on the walking foot and it seemed to help a lot. It almost seems like the
quilt backing was more than taut when I pinned the layers, or the high loft batting is maybe part of the problem.
I am going to re-pin and see if that helps. Any more suggestions are appreciated. Thank you for your help
