Quilt As You Go.
Basically layer the backing and batting. Then lay your first strip on top. Sew it along the edge to hold in place. Put the next piece on - right sides together just like normal, but when you sew it together with your first strip- you will be attaching to batting and backing at the same time. Flip 2nd piece face up. Grab 3rd strip, right sides together w 2nd piece. Sew. Open. Continue....
Donna Jordan (Jordan Fabrics) does a great job showing this with placemats. Search Youtube. May 2018 (on a phone so I can't make a link - too dumb!)
