Default Need help - quilt as you go

I am taking the craftsy free block of the month class. I have been trying to decide how to quilt it. Each block is so different. Some have a lot of negative space. I normally machine quilt on my domestic sewing machine with a meandering design. Due to the vastly different blocks and negative space I thought I would quilt each block based on its design. I know trying this after it is sewn together as one big piece will be a nightmare, so I was thinking about quilt as you go, but I don't know how to do this.

For those that have done the qayg method can you please share your tips. I have found one or two posts but it is still confusing to me. I understand you batt and back one square and then quilt it. My confusion comes on how to put the blocks together once they are all quilted.

Thanks in advance for any links or tips, tricks you can share with me.
