I just use my cutting table and put my batting down, first. I use Warm & White/Natural, so it pretty much stays put, even when part is hanging off of my cutting table. When I feel it needs more support, I adjust the ironing board to the proper height, and push it next to the table. Then I use Elmer's School Glue on the batting, and smooth my quilt top over it, half at a time. When one half is set (dry enough not to shift, which is pretty quick), I slide it over and do the other half. After both halves have set, I flip the whole thing over and do the same with the backing.
