Rather than pinning .... there are 202 and 404 sprays (yes, from the 505 people) that you might want to use. It would help you keep it flat, rather than the bumps that pinning causes .... and the risk of hitting the pins while FMQing.
I'm not sure I would want to go the tissue paper route, but if it works then it's worth the try.
