I'll cut the batting into thirds lengthwise. Allowing 4" wider and 4" longer than the quilt top. Quilting the center first, then the two outsides.

With this method I’ll only have bulk of 1/3 of the batting at a time. The remaining two sides of the quilt top and backing will roll up without the bulk of the batting.

When the center is all quilted, I’ll butt the two batting pieces together with a whip stitch or machine stitch. Working from the left so the throat of the machine is not stuffed.
