There use to be a basting table top frame you could buy. May be still available.


I have a large rectangle dining table, bar stool height. One time I had a bright idea. I put the quilt back on top of it, add weights to the ends of the quilt backing and top. My husband had small round weights with holes in them. I ran fabric though the holes and tied to a binder clip. It worked great but it took took too long for me to thread baste. I like to use spray or powder and I couldn't spray in the dining room or heat the table with an iron. If you have the place for a large table, use weights.

I have seen the very large binder clips and they would probably be good weights. You don't need a heavy weights, just evenly distributed.
