Am I the only one who uses a running stitch by hand to attach them? It lays flat, you'd never know I pieced it unless you took the whole quilt apart and it seems to be doing great. I saw to do this in a book. Guess I'm really behind the times! LOL! Doesn't the zig zagging make that seam area too thin?
No, you are not the only one. Whenever I need to piece batting, I butt it together and use hand stitching to hold it. I have never had the seam to be felt nor seen when the quilting is done.
