Here's a link to a thread about quilting in sections. The book is called Quilting in Sections by Marti Michell

I am in the process of preparing one using the "low fat" method from this book. I did try a few methods on scraps and like this one the best. I hope to be doing some actual quilting on it this coming weekend. I'll post again and let you know the results. :)
