You can do this. I am trying one at the moment first time and I am sewing a row of blocks together then putting the batting under and then the back piece. Someone told me to leave 1" batting and under backing all round the edge. When you quilt remember not to go too near the edge so you can catch the material when you sew it together. Hope this helps. There are books on it, but sorry canīt help, perhaps one of our friends may know the name of it. :D
