Ok something else new to me, Birthing Method???
Thanks :) :?:
AKA Pillowcase method. You lay the batting, backing & top down, sew almost all the way around, leaving about an 18" space. Then turn it. Often these quilts are then tied.

I use it to test clothing pattern pieces. Doesn't matter if it'e pieced together. Saved a lot of mistakes that way.
