I found that I just had to stitch slower than normal and have a firm grip on both sides (above and below the pressure foot) of the fabric to keep a consistent seam.
Opps, and I just noticed, the backing picture that I posted is for another quilt that I did with the same fabric on the front and the same Minkee backing. The third quilt was actually quilted with medium meandering. I will post that other quilt at another time.

thanks for telling us the pattern name and company. I didn't have much luck searching just by pattern but good luck with company. I ordered the pattern and looking forward to receiving it and making some of these quilts.
Yours are awesome
