With the fleece backing and NO BATTING, you can quilt quite far apart. All you have to do is secure the fleece to the top enough to keep it from shifting completely out of place. I often just outline the blocks, even if they are as large as 10" or 12".
For these blocks that finish at 8", I cut the center section at 4.5" x 8.5" and the outer rails at 2.5"x 8.5".
