Here's a new notion to help with the basting:

These thingies eliminate the need for safety pins and, I imagine, would be quicker to put in and take out.
Also, there is the innovative method by Sharon Schamber:

I don't do any hand quilting, only machine quilting so I always use spray baste. I love it. Quick and easy and able to start quilting in less than an hour. Also on small projects like wall hangings I use straight pins. So much easier.

Oh my goodness, I just watched the Pinmoor video. I started to say that I have used pincel erasers on the end of straight pins but thought it sounded too dumb. Who knew!
