I very carefully layer the two pieces of batt, then cut a curvy line, remove the small pieces. Then I just quilt away. I've never had a problem without permanently bonding the pieces, this is inexpensive, and I've found it works well, at least IMO

the only difference between the tape & fusable interfacing is the convienience---the tape is in a strip- the interfacing comes in yards you have to cut---they are the same as far as function-
the tape costs a little more because you are paying for the convienience of it's form.
just like purchasing pre-cuts instead of yardage....you pay a little more for convienience.

I do this also, except I stitch the two pieces of batting together with a very wide zigzag. It has worked perfectly well for me as it only takes a little thread. And it probably doesn't take any more time than joining the two pieces with a fusible.
