I'm constructing Quiltology in quilt-as-you-go (QAYG) fashion. I lay the block on backing and wadding and tack and there are dots of glue baste here and there too. The extra backing and wadding is to accommodate sashing added later. Then I quilt the block. It's easy to quilt in the ditch round all the shapes when the piece is small. Next I lay out the sashing and then flip over and pin and stitch the seams. Once done and pressed I trim the wadding but not the backing. This isn't a quicker way but is 
very suitable for sampler blocks like this which involve lots of maneuvring when quilting. I like handling the quilted pieces
