I have almost finished a "quit as you go" quilt using the method on a Craftsy video, will post a picture when it is finished. I am very happy with it. If you don't have a long arm and don't want to "wrestle" with a large quilt on a small machine it is the way to go.

OK, I've made 2 quilts in the QAYG methods and wouldn't do it again. One was the Jenny join from Jenny Haskins, very bad choice IMO, the other was bringing the larger back up, make a seam then fold on top of the block forming sashing and stitching down. What am I doing wrong? Or have I not found the right method?

here's a video. I had to laugh at the title... "Learn the original quilt first then assemble quilting method"
Don't really think this was the first.

I really like this one. Not too complicated. using wash away stabilizer keeps it soft after washing. Super cute. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tWKVNQTG-74 (Linda Goodall's method.

There is a book called crazy shortcut quilts by Marguerite Mcmanus, that is worth taking a look at, this author was a longarm quilter who decided that she needed to come up with another way to do it. Like all the other methods this is not for everyone, I believe that she has some tutorials on U tube as well you might check out.
