If you live near a JoAnn's, slip in and pick up one of their cardboard cutting boards to place on top of the bed to work on. That's what I do and it helps a lot. I also use it the dining room table when hand basting as I can roll the quilt up, turn it and move it so I don't have to be moving around so much.
Worth a try. For me it works great as I never had any luck doing it on the floor and don't have a table large enough to work on.
