Pin Your Pins Perpendicularly to Save Your Machine Needle

Pinning takes up a pretty big portion of the time that you spend sewing. Not all of the work is right on the machine and so much of it is actually in the world of pinning. It seems sometimes that you are endlessly pinning and unpinning. An easy way to help with the time that is taken in pinning and unpinning is to place your pins perpendicularly when you put pieces together.

This helps because you don't have to remove all the pins while you are sewing and don't have to worry about them breaking the needle on your machine.
