This is exactly how I do it too. I actually do it on my rug and I have the curved pins. I stick the pin through to the rug, then lift enough to pull the three layers away from the rug and then push back through and close. I actually only end up having to fix one or two pins that are stuck in the carpet ..... hehehe ..... :)
