Default Ideas for displaying small quilt at a craft fair space without wall

Hi everyone,
I attended my first craft show in last November and loved the experience! I had a wonderful time chatting with every one (visitors and other crafters) and I want to do it again this year.
My sales were not spectacular (I barely covered my fees) but I had no real expectations on this matter (it was my first ever selling experience). Because most of my products were baby and children related, and the average visitors were up to 60's, I was kind of not really at the right place.
I found and registered for a children specific craft show next May and I want to bring my baby quilt (I made about a dozen of small ones for crib and car seat and didn't sold any). I will be the only one who will be offering this kind of products (other sewn item sellers are more into pacifier clips, bibs and cloth diaper) so it`s worth a try.
My main problem is how to display my quilt in the booth. In November, I had a very large booth so I was able to display all my quilt on a large rack made by my husband.

But for the craft show in May, I have the following restrictions:
-I only have a 8 X 5 feet space
-I'm backside with another exposant, so I have no wall to hang anything.
-I only have 1 1/2 hour before the opening to set up my table
-I will be alone (DH watching the kids!)

I don't know how to display my quilt this time (a pile of folded quilt on a table would not work).

Some of you may have set up a booth/table with similar restriction; how did you made it? I need some ideas! I found many ideas on Pinterest for displaying small items, but nothing like quilt/blanket.

Thanks!
