Hand Baste or Pin?
Do you hand baste or pin when preparing for quiliting? Fairly new to quilting and just wondering what the majority seem to do. I am thinking it is more quicker to pin but more secure to hand baste. What are your thoughts?

Neither. I use Elmer's Glue. Unless you're hand quilting and then I'd stick with thread basting or having it long arm basted. And if you're going to thread baste I'd use Sharon Schamber's board method which works really well. She has videos on youtube.

I hate pins. Hate them! I thread baste on my q-nap quilt frame using Sharon Schamber's method (except on a frame).
|
I pin, it's easier for me.
