This is how I do it. While not necessary, I put a bit of velcro on the sides at the top, center and bottom to attach the two sheets to each other so they don't shift out of alignment while pinning the quilt.
I also picked up (at Lowes) some of the longer aluminum squares for drawing lines on the insulation boards and checking the corners (to use in addition to my quilting rulers).
The boards are the same ones I use for the design wall - 3/4" thick, although if it's just going to be on the floor then I guess the 1/2" would be enough.
