That would work, unless your thread catches on the tape :p I would like to share Sally Schoenberg's method, hope she doesn't mind - sew long loops of thread into the pricking at strategic points (e.g. where you would normally pin), and pin the loops tight 'way back from the pricking, thus tethering the pricking in place. You will have cover cloths over the areas (yes?) so that nothing will catch on the tethering threads.
