Quilt as you go?
For those that do the quilt as you go method, what things do I need to know before tackling the project? I am going to do a 4 section block (carpenter star pattern) that will end up as a large star block when put together. I was going to try to fmq each section before putting it together. Does the batting and back fabric need to be a different size than the front piece? Do I do the quilting then flip it over and attach the sections together then hand stitch the batting and then turn the back piece and slip stitch it? I have looked on youtube and haven't really seen what I am looking for. Dear me, I hope I have explained my latest problem.
