I use a large folding table. I put the middle of the backing down first and clamp it. Then I put the batting down and clamp that and then the top. I clamp it all tight with little things from Home Depot or Lowe's. When I get that middle section of the quilt pinned or basted, I go to the right or left side. So far, this has worked for me. I can't get up and down on the floor and I found my fold up long table works great. Good luck.
