I have been quilting for almost 30 years so I have done the pin-basting process many times. That said, even I picked up some new ideas from this video. She also does a great job of explaining the process in detail include WHY it's important to do it this way. I find that very helpful as it gives me a reason not to skip a particular step. The only thing it's missing is a way around having to baste a big quilt on the floor but I'm not sure that's possible if you're pin-basting. If it is, I haven't ever found a way to do it (or do it well anyway).
