I use this technique for both thread basting and pin basting and it works great. No more crawling on the floor...good for my knees...
Also, you can usually enlist some help as you can sit side by side to get the job done faster.
When pin basting, put all the pins in a section first, then go back and close them then move the quilt up. The closing of the pins tends to distort the fabric..
