I line the 2 pieces side by side (not overlaping) and zigzag them together. Hope this helps.

Hi Loris,

You can also butt two pieces together (put them side by side), take a little strip of light fusible interfacing, lay it over the pieces you're joining, iron it on to join them!

Hmm - I haven't tried that method yet, but will the next time I need to piece batting. I've always just zig-zagged.
