the how is- bring bobbin thread to the top- leave a couple inches of both on the quilt surface- when ready to bury your threads you tie the two into a knot- then thread the 2 threads onto a needle and work them into the batting- center of the quilt-
the reason is so your stitching does not start coming undone as your quilt is used/laundered.
