505 spray vs. pinning
I made a quilt for my daughter & her husband for Christmas & it was a nightmare. After pinning & taking it apart twice because the backing was CRAZY, I asked for help on this board & it was recommended to starch the backing & use spray 505 & OMG it worked & I wouldn't go back to pinning unless I was absolutely desperate. I couldn't be more grateful for that suggestion.

I totally dislike spray basting. It is messy and I prefer the pins, curved or not doesn't matter to me. Someone once told me to you T pins. I tried it and dislike like them because I was always getting stuck with them enought to bleed on the material even. So I would never suggest Tpins to anyone.
