What do you mean by "birth" it???
Putting quilt top and backing right sides together, stitching around the edges, leaving a 12" space unsewn, and then turning the whole thing inside out.
We've just always called it birthing in my group.
I'm sure there is a valid technical term which is unknown to me. ;-)
