This is a very interesting concept. I wonder if anyone has actually done this, and if so, what they think of this method. Sure sounds like it would work. I guess you could just baste the additional strips of batting to the strip that was in the center, and work out from there. Would love to hear from someone who has done it this way.

There are a lot of videos on youtube on how to quilt in sections.
