I do mine in sections since I have only a small area. Glue one section, let dry for 45 min., put a few pins around the area so I know which are done, shift the quilt, glue another section, etc. Sometimes I turn on a fan to help with the drying. I put the backing on the batting, then when done with that whole side, turn it over and do the same with the top. It takes some time, but I can get lots of other things done during the drying time. When I'm done, I leave it draped over the counter until bedtime, then fold it loosely. It can be quilted the next day.
I love it, because no matter how much wrestling with it I must do to quilt, the layers don't shift! Though it may seem like a long, involved process, I've simply worked it into my routine. I use Elmer's washable school glue.
