I use hair clips> They spring open and close easily. they are really inexpensive (12 for $1) at the dollar store, about $2+ at walmarts. Very easy to use.

I use the hair clips also. but due to the way i manipulate things I put them on the binding I have already sewed on the quilt ... so the thread doesn't loosen as I sew ... and I sorta tie the thread every 6-8 inches also.

I just do things that work for me.
