I use to spray baste all my smaller quilts, and my one table has the residue to prove it. I always thought I was being careful and spraying only within the center of it, but somehow that spray would get everywhere on my cutting table.
To this date, I am unable to scrub that bumpy feeling off my table...it's not sticky, just bumpy.

You might even find a Sr Center that will hand baste it for, a quilt guild, or even a church group!

I feel the same way about my quilts. They are truly mine if I do it all.
I've not tried spray basting. I sure like the idea of a longarm for basting though. My friend has one . Maybe I'll see if I can use her machine just to baste up a bunch of my quilts and then I'll do them on my machine as time permits.

When you baste on a longarm how do you do it? Just stitch a grid?
Thanks.
