I quilt first the middle, attach the batting back on one side via about 1" to 1 1/2" of fusible interfacing, quilt that section, then do the same with the other side. You could also whip stitch the interfacing back together by hand, I have done this also. They actually have pre-made strips to fuse the batting together, but I just cut the interfacing myself - much cheaper. (Clear as mud!)
Jeanie, this is exactly how I've been doing my quilting. It's so much easier than pushing-and-pulling the entire batting. Thanks for the confirmation that I'm not doing things "wrong"!
