I do the same as dunster.

batting tape or French fusible cut into stripes. With wool batting or poly, I sometimes will abut the edges and hand stitch a ladder type stitch.

I use smaller pieces of batting in smaller projects, bags and the like. No reason why you couldn't zig zag pieces together, though.

i zig zag the pieces. I did that for 2 quilts and can't tell the batting was pieced.

DogHouseMom has said all that needs to be said. I might add that I sometimes use the tape method. I buy yardage of the nylon tricot iron on interfacing and cut it into strips with my rotary cutter. Not expensive at all.

I use the batting tape you can purchase from a number of places. Think my last purchase was from Nancy's Notion during a sale. I just used up most of my pieced battings on a number of smaller projects recently too. Attached a wide piece of muslin, last on the bolt and just kept adding batting to fit and the project. I've been making new cushions for my outdoor furniture, wallhangings from scraps and even quilted my dining room chairs (double batted). The cushions are on their way out to the garage till Spring and hopefully I'll be putting on the new fabric for the dining chairs this coming week. My quilt frame is now housing all my fabrics from the shelves as I'm getting new shelving put in so can't quilt so getting my mending done (UGH!) and anything else I can do till I have my quilt frame back. Great time to finish those "hated chores".

I butt the edges together and stitch them with a wide zigzag. Been doing it that way for years & years.
