Well, this thread was more wonderful than I even expected it to be! I thank you all for the wonderful suggestions. Last night I pinned a practice FMQ sandwich that I had onto the edge of the quilt I'm hand quilting and it worked like a charm, but I also want to try the rubber bands and will definitely look into Daffy's sleeve...that IS adorable. I told the members of my quilting group about it and the hand-quilters' eyes lit up with excitement.
So again thanks to all for your generous help. It is greatly appreciated
