Inter VLAN Routing between 2 Switches

I have some questions regarding the architecture described in the below post:

https://community.spiceworks.com/topic/1947082-inter-vlan-routing-between-2-switches

Two switches with L3 routing between them. Switch A and Switch B have unique VLANs local to themselves and are performing interVLAN routing between those VLANS and L3 routing to the other switch.

It seems like whichever hosts exist on each Switch A will have to be assigned to a VLAN Interface on Switch A and any hosts on Switch B will have to be assigned to a VLAN interface on Switch B. I can't think of a way around it, let me know if that sounds right?

Example:

Switch A L3

VLANs 10,20,30 - Hosts have to be on these subnets/VLANS. Can't have hosts on VLAN 40

Switch B L3

VLANs 40,50,60 - Hosts have to be on these subnets/VLANS. Can't have Hosts on VLAN 10.
