With the quilt off the wall I cut the batting from each side of the center..
(remember only cut the batting
)

Now I rolled both sides inward tightly without batting adding to the bulk I can easily maneuver it in the machine to stipple the center of the quilt.

Once I finished stippling the center I was then ready to insert and outside batting. As I stated before you can either hand baste the batting back together or use a heat bond designed for joining batting. As you can see I hand basted mine.

Then it was back to quilting first one side then I did the above step again to the other side and completed the quilting.

Now at this point If I wanted to make this quilt larger I could use the technique from the second QAYG tutorial to add a quilted border all around this small quilt.
