Machine basting question
With the price of spray basing my quilts I'm thinking of trying something else.To those of you that machine baste or maybe hand baste, do you pin everything together, make a giant X , and then maybe run a line horizontal and vertical thru the middle of the X? Guessing the edges of the quilt have to be basted also. Is it difficult to remove the basting stitches once you have sewn over them with your quilting design?
