OK, background to this posting is on page 213, where I was explaining about how I intended to QAYG, but not to put the background fabric on at this stage. Then someone (sorry, can't remember who) asked to see the back of my quilt, so I thought I would take some more pics for you to see how I have been joining the batting on the back. Here goes:

Mark join with a pencil

Trim batting away, about 1/8th inch from sashing, on one side..

Keep going and you end up with this!!!
