I use this method all the time. The last one fits my king size bed. I usually use the Ilet stitch (makes a little circle) and place it about a fist width apart. Wish I knew how to post pictures. I used 137 diff. batiks and the dbl cut 10" sq. It is bright and warm. I also use a polyester batting instead of cotton as it is fluffier (not sure that is a word but you know what I mean)
