I too pin and roll rather than float.......I like it just a bit snugger than just laying there and i can control it better.......I also baste sides as I go and use clamps.....been doing this for almost 20 yrs now......then machine quilting was frowned on, now look how far it has come. We each have to find the way that works best for us.
