Hand baste, eww, I know, right? Just one or 2 stitches at each intersection, leave the thread hanging and just go down the block. It takes a little longer than pinning but before you sew you KNOW it is lined up, and the stitches are easy to take out. I have not done this yet.
Oh I want to try this. Actually I do this sort of basting with my Lizzie when I think anything will shift--I baste or tack with the machine every few inches across. I pull it out before I roll the quilt.
