I don't spray baste because I don't want to breathe that stuff in or get it on other things. Now that I have a long arm, I do not have to baste! I do sometimes pin baste something small that I am going to do on my sit down, If I were to do something larger on my sit down, I would baste it on my longarm. Some long armers will baste your quilt. I don't know how much they would charge for that, but if I have to give up my long arm, I think that is what I would do. Find someone to baste it for me. Some shops will rent out time on their longarms. You usually have to take a class first. I would think you could get a number of quilts basted in a couple of hours. Sure beats getting down on the floor to glue baste, or pin baste, or spray baste.
