If I use spray adhesive, I don't generally use pins. But, if you feel that you need to add pins after using spray adhesive, I do have a couple tips that may help you. Make sure that both your backing and your quilt top are starched. Then be sure to tape the backing all around onto the table or surface that you have laid the quilt on. Also use SHARP pins that glide through the fabric easily. Start in the middle and work your way out. Practice on a "sample" sandwich until you are comfortable with the procedure. Good luck. If all fails, swear. LOL.
