The hooks on the ceiling sound like it would work well too.

It's Lean Day's set-up. Mine is a little simpler, works as well I would imagine.

That "hanging" the quilt idea sounds good to me too - if my bathroom were bigger I'd hang it from the shower curtain rod and do my quilting in there!

The other one I've been reading about is to get 2 dog grooming arms & clamp them to a table. Very inexpensive on wayfair.com.

My husband made me a setup very similar to the Jenoop for under $40.00, I love it. Be sure if you do make your own to get the racheting clamps, much easier on your hands, especially old arthritic hands

I have quilted several large size quilts on my Viking, and have never had a problem. I always use the puddle method, and do it by quarters, but if I try to roll a quilt, OMG, what a mess
