To birth a quilt, I put the batting on the back of the quilt flimsy. Then I make the backing and lay the batting, quilt flimsy down right side up and then lay the backing right side down. I sew about a half an inch all around the quilt except for 10 inches. Then I reach in the hole and pull everything through it and poke the corners out nicely. I iron the quilt well and then quilt it all over. This way you don't have to do the edges with binding. It's great for kids quilts!
