I do my small quilts across my bed--I used to spread a flannel backed tablecloth out, but as I've gained more experience, I find I use less spray, and have very little over spray. I do have a washable blanket I'm working on.
I should add, though, that I am doing almost all mine with fleece (heavy, not thin) backing and no batting. And I can work from top to bottom, folding over what I've done then lift a new section onto the bed. It doesn't seem too hard to keep things pretty straight, however, I do self-binding with the fleece so do some trimming after I get the quilting done. It doesn't take much just enough to anchor things so it washes easily. I used to do the backing, batting, and tops but I've gotten so I send that kind to my LAQ.
