I'm not sure how it would be cheating.
If it is, then I cheat just about every day by hand quilting with my sandwich in a (floor) hoop. The hoop holds the weight of the quilt so that my arms don't get tired. I don't really have room for a frame, so a floor hoop is what works for me.
To me, that's not cheating, that's just being practical.
Cheating, to me, would be doing something like buying a quilt from someone else and passing it off as my own work.
