This book explains a number of ways of breaking a quilt into pieces so that you can handle the quilting with the sewing machine. I've tried several of these methods, and I will continue quilting in sections until I can convince DH that I really need a longarm. (That means I will be quilting in sections for a very long time!)
I don't think that quilting in sections is what most people mean by quilt as you go. Usually QAYG is done with smaller pieces, but the techniques are probably very similar. When I quilt in sections, I may break a queen quilt into only 3 or 4 pieces. One of the things the book teaches is how to look at a quilt design and decide what method would work best for it.
