In my defense , there are times when matching up a really tough area.. its just seems like the best method to keep it all exactly in place till its stitched.
If you use your walking foot for these tough-to-match seams, the walking foot will do all the work for you! I still use pins but put them in so that their tips are 1/4" from the seam line.
