Default Glue Basting - must wash finished quilt?

Question....if you do use the glue to baste your quilt together, is it a must to wash the quilt when you are finished quilting it? Is it noticeable that it has been glue basted if you don't wash it? Just thinking it would be a more economical way to baste than spray basting for donated quilts and i've never tried the Elmers glue for quilt sandwiching, but it gets such great reviews, thought I might give it a try. I've just started quilting quilts for our local group that donates quilts for kids and the 505 spray that I love, is going to get pretty expensive and I hate working with pins. The quilts are not washed when completed before donating, so wondering what to do.
thanks,
kathy
