I don't think you would want to use T-pins as they have a rather thick shank and might cause holes. Besides, pins will "bite!" If you need to hold the binding in place while you sew, small binder clips would work nicely. Personally, I don't anchor the binding down except with my thumb as I go.

I always enjoy this step as it's the sign that this quilt is nearly finished.

Enjoy each step of the quilts journey.
