I usually vacuum my floor and close the doors to keep the dogs out of the room while I pin mine down- if not I have 2 greyhounds laying right next to mom on the quilt I am trying to pin together - also pick a day DH is playing golf.

I keep big pieces of cardboard stacked in a closet. I put them on my bed and then the quilt. This works for me, even though I know there are other options out there, I don't usually want to go away from home since I usually forget something essential like thread, needles, etc.
I also have 3 of CostCo's folding tables, put together they make a good large area, especially when I had a big wooden dinner table.

Also try a school - they may have large table you can push together for an hour.
I also agree with churches and libraries.
How about government buildings, fire stations, ... anyplace that GATHERS - for meetings of any type

Search here for the Sharon Schamber method. I hope I spelled her name right. She demonstrates how to do it with two boards on YouTube. I bought myself the boards last night and plan to try it soon.
