is there anyway i can still make my quilt without needing all the space!

i have done abit of reading up about 'quilt as you go' as an alternative. but i am unsure how i get the quilted blocks joined together without bunching the batting when sewing them together?

in all honesty, i dont really like the finished look of the 'quilt as you go' quilts as much

any answers on this would be greatly appreciated!

Hi Lisa, from Manchester UK!!

I have done several large quilts in two halves, much easier to layer up and quilt too! No bumps in my wadding LOL

If you need some pointers just shout!

OH and welcome to the QB, you will get lots of friendly help and heaps of inspiration here!
