    Can anyone help please? I have a quilt that I started- in a class - and due to a move of house I didn't complete the class. It was a quilt as you go Christmas quilt and I was wondering how I join the completed blocks together as they have the batting already added. If anyone knows of a tutorial or can give me simple instructions I would be very grateful. Thank you

    The one I did, I pushed the batting aside and sewed the front sections together. Then I folded over one side of each seam on the back and hand stitched the seams. Then I quilted over the seam area to match the rest of the quilting.

    A friend of mine does quilt as you go on all her quilts. She keeps telling me to give it a shot. With all the good info available, maybe I will...
