I have a 45 x45 wall hanging I am completing and do not want to go into town to purchase batting when I have pieces at home. How do you make it one piece? Or do you leave it alone till you sandwich it?

You can put it together by using the batting tape, use your widest zig zag stitch on your machine or you can whip stitch it by hand.

A whip stitch is an overcast stitch - in on one side of the seam, out on the other, pull through.
I don't sew or use the joining tape when I spray baste or when I'm using fusible batt. If you get the pieces butted well without any overlaps, then spray, the fabric you put over it will hold the joins together.
