I don't pin either. Just make sure a seam doesn't end up in a corner. When hand stitching which is NOT that difficult, I use those aluminum hair clips instead of pins. Just bring your thread up, take a bit into the binding and go back down close to where you came up and get you needle to come up somewhere a little closer than 1/4" and come back up and take another bit..... Just keep repeating. I use to be able to sew at least 5 feet in an hour.
