Do you pin?

I pin any seams that need to be matched within the block and then when joining the blocks, adding sashing, borders, etc. Pretty much I stick a pin where I want to be sure that the seams match.

I rarely pin, but I've been sewing and quilting for at least 35 years. I do match the seams. Actually, I match the first seam crossing, and when the needle gets to the seam, I stop and match the next seam. I do this with every quilt and when I make clothing.
