Do this with both sides (or the top and bottom, if that's how you roll). Sew through all the layers and trim the batting from the seam allowance, then flip and press. There'll be a little extra bulk at the seam, but it should lay fairly flat. Then do the other two sides. You can then quilt your border, if desired. Trim the border to the desired size (remember you cut it a little big). Then apply the binding.
Would she still have to cut the batting and backing if she already has it available without cutting anything extra? She said in the original post "I've quilted to the edge of the pieces
but I have enough backing and batting to accomodate a border. I just assumed that her batting and backing were large enough already to accomadate the border without adding any to the quilt! Sorry if I miss understood!
