It's usually called "quilt as you go". I haven't done it yet but have a book with instructions on how to do it and have seen quilts made by others that have been quilted that way.

Here are some links if found on how to put the sections together.

linapooh1 there is also a technique that Marti Michel demoes that shows how to quilt sections of a large quilt and add the batting as you go instead of doing all of the sandwiching with batting before you start the actual quilting.
