I've been using Deemails method of holding the seams together and it works. I never thought no pinning would work, but it does. I also was searching for the forked pins. Saw them on TV. Thanks for all the tips. Now I have to master pinwheel points. That's next.

Another thought, after you've pinned, any method, sew your seam with a basting stitch (by machine). That way, if you have to remove the stitches, it's much easier. If your seams match up and you are satisfied with them, sew again over same basting stitches with your normal stitch length. If it's too much thread for your liking, remove the basting stitches after final sewing.
