I generally spray baste and pin every foot or so around the edges. The only reason I do that is because mine get handled and moved alot. I don't usually get my quilting done in one sitting and have to pack it all away whenever I'm done for the day because I sew at the dining room table. The spray baste holds very well. You can always just respray the edges if necessary if you don't want to pin.

BTW, congratulations on your new grandson. You will LOVE being a grandma...I've been one for 7 mos. now and my DGD is the best thing in my life! Give him a kiss for me.
I am going to help her out for a week. They get out of the hospital on Tuesday so trying to decide if I should go down tomorrow noonish or wait until Tuesday around 9ish (I have to drive thru the middle of Los Angeles to get to her place, there are certain times you just don't even try)
I know that traffic in Los Angeles is horrible. I was born there and lived there till I was about 11 and we moved to Oregon but over the years weve gone down to visit my grandma that has passed now but we were driving through there this past February. You be safe. :)
