Linda and Irish Rose have two very good ideas. Stabilize the the batting layer to one other layer before turning.
Another way to do this quickly, easily and cheaply is with Elmer's School Glue. Make lines of the glue on the batt, place top or back on that, right side up, and iron the glue dry. Then put the other piece on face down, pin just enough to hold the outside in place and sew all around the outside, except for enough to turn the sandwich. Up to 24 inches may be needed. Then birth the quilt (turn it right side out). Now your are ready to tie it.
There are several posts on this board that give precise instructions on using the school glue.
