I did this project on my oversized second hand melamine dining room table. Width of my quilt was the same as the length of my table (happy coincidence). I layed down batting first and than the quilt on top. I put row of pins through the middle just to split the quilt in two smaller pieces. I flipped the top over, all the way to the pins and applied glue on the batting in dots and thin lines, just randomly. I flipped the top back down and smoothed it with my hands. I did not use iron but I assume it wold be faster if I did. When the glue was dry, I repeated the same with the second half of the quilt. Instructions on the glue bottle say that it is fully dried in 24 hours, so I let I dry overnight and than repeated the same with the backing. Just as an experiment I used Elmer's Glue-All in one corner to see if it will wash out. I will be quilting it in a few hours so I will post how it is holding up.
