Bobby pins to hold binding in place while you sew. They come in packs of about 100 for less than $2 - at least where I bought them. Very easy to use, no pins poking you through the process.
Glue stick to match points and hold the match while you sew. I taught my grand niece and nephew to use washable glue stick when they made their first quilts. Neither they nor I had to worry about them poking themselves (or each other!) with a pin.
