I also love basting spray, (June Taylor is my favorite.) I have to agree with WMUTeach, in that I wouldn't be quilting if I had to pin baste. I hate crawling around on the floor, I hate having to stop quilting to take out pins, and I hate how much weight all those pins add to the quilt. I baste over a 6' banquet table and spray baste in sections, letting the extra length of fabrics hang over the edge of the table.
