Best way to carpet boot

I've bought some nice carpet that I'm planning to line the boot and rear seats with. My plan is to fit the side trim plastics back into the car then line all the white floor pan with carpet. What's the best way of doing this? (excuse the rubbish)

I was thinking of doing it in sections like below and then trying to mesh the edges together to hide any join lines?

If you can wait about 3 days, I'll have mine finished that I'm doing almost the same hehe.

 

Basically I've deleted my rear seats, made a replacement section out of very thin ply for storage. Then in the boot I've used the existing carpet and existing black plastic wheel cover as the base. I bought a 3m x 5m roll of acoustic carpet that I've now stitched to the existing boot carpet, and that now flows as one right from the boot all the way underneath the front seats, and will all be dyed to match perfectly. I removed all interior panels also so that the new carpet can be fixed down behind them, giving a cleaner more oem look but so I can still get into the spare wheel well etc.
