Go to your library or church and ask if you can use their meeting room tables to lay out your quilt. Most libraries and churches are used to this type of request. Err, my library is because there are so many quilters in my area.

Your church, your school cafeteria, a quilting classroom, anyplace that has the larger tables. I put a piece of 2 inch insulation foam across two sawhorses, and that works well, then store the insulation behind my freezer
|
Place your cutting board between quilt sandwich and soft surface such as bed.. It works in a pinch. Also if the community room at the local "ole folks home is not in use you may be able to use their tables..Doesn't hurt to ask.

A 4' by 8' sheet of 5/8th-inch finished (one side) plywood and two sawhorses will always make a great instant work table
