OR a more favorable way....I have quilted the center of a quilt before, then went back and quilted the borders (this is without removing the quilt)
This after first securing the left side, only as much as you are working on (about 17-24 inches for me), and top, all the way, and right side, only as much as you are working on. I use a basting stitch. Then I do the center of the quilt. As I am advancing the quilt I first baste the edges and then work the center. All the way at the end I do the borders. I very seldom turn the quilt to do the side edges. I also at times baste the whole quilt's edges and then advance back and forth to do the quilting. This tends to make a mess for me but at times can not be avoided because of the pattern I want on the quilt.
I agree there is no real right or wrong. Just experiment.
