WAHT? Pinning wrong for three years???
#33
I am a "righty" but pin like a "lefty". I actually do many sewing chores as a "lefty". I do sometimes change it up and pin from the other direction, mostly because the pinning situation dictates so. Of course being a rebel, I also sew over pins. Sorry, sewing police can find someone else to arrest.

I'm right handed but I pin with the pin head to the left. I seem to have too much going on to the right of the needle to pull pins - usually either a foot with a guide on it ,or a seam guide attached to the bed that makes pulling pins awkward.

Didn't know there was a RIGHT or WRONG way to pin! ! ! I believe whatever works best for each quilter. Long as your seam edges start even, finish even , are stitched straight and are stitched accurately, I would think that should be the RIGHT way.
