Make a small 12 by 12 sample . Now with walking foot do a few rows from the same direction every time on half of square.
Now do the Sam but do each row in opposite directions . You should see a difference on the sides the first will be showing walking creep.

Wow -- I'm sure glad I asked before plunging into the quilting. I'll add an additional 3 or 4 inches all around before beginning my quilting. Thanks, Everyone, for your experience-based advice on this. Since this quilt is a reversible king-size, it's worth 'spending' the extra fabric at this stage.
