I too have found that when quilting my queen.. I have tables set up same way... and tried to use those quilt clips to hold it rolled up but found they got in the way and just ended up removing them and squishing the material whatever way I needed to go.. still worked fine .. do STD and FMQ this way..

I ended up just crumpling it! Having a table behind the machine and to the side for the rest of the quilt to rest upon is helpful.
