i did that when i first started to quilt in the 80's. i have had degenerative spinal disease since teens. the bed trick didn't last long ..backbreaking in every sense of the word!
so then i moved the dining table & and used the hardwood floor & hoped i'd finish before hubby got home from work and wanted his dinner
so now ..hang a piece of felt and leave as long as needed
