Thought I would post it over here if anyone is interested and had not come across it. Im still working on piecing the top I will be sharing with the next method of quilting large quilts on a standard machine. Have a great day everyone.
Must be too early in the morning -- didn't quite understand how she did this but looking at the final result, it looks similar to how I've done a couple of quilts. From her pics, it looks like she is simply attaching each row to the entire batting & backing. If that's true, I haven't tried this method and would love to understand it better.

Yep, that is what she's doing. I've seen that method done with fabric strips. This is my first look at doing it with patched rows.

Oh, I really want to master this! It is so much easier to work on a block, then join it to another block. My biggest problem is in the joining...figuring out how to make the back look as nice as the front.

Thank you for taking this on! I will try to participate as much as I can.

I have decided that this is the way to go if I want to have decent looking quilts but don't want to have to pay a longarmer to quilt them. I have tried and tried and just am not good at working with large quilts in my machine. It is so much easier just to work with individual blocks. Here is my latest I have done in QAYG. I absolutely love this quilt. It was so easy to do and I think it came out really good.[ATTACH=CONFIG]404490[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]404491[/ATTACH]

Judy--great quilting! I still do mostly SITD even when doing QAYG...might have to try a little more meandering after seeing how nice this looks!!

Here is an update on the QAYG project Im working on. Soon as I finish the piecing I will have to go into town and pick up the batting and backing. Then I will be ready to start the QAYG process on this top.

The pieces on the left is a separate QAYG upcoming project.
