If you do as someone suggests and make the batting 1 inch smaller it will give the warmth without the extra layer in the seam. That helps quite a bit.
If I do this then I need to do the X (or something) in the middle of the squares to hold the middle layer in place? Do you usually do this bit first then sew the squares together?
