Hi,
I purchased the fons and porter design wall at JoAann's with my 50% off coupon, it was only $12.00 and already has grommets at the top, so was easy to hang on the command hooks and it does hold a quilt top. |
I pin mine to the living room curtain. LOL Works for me.
|
I use Office stick/push pins and old sewing machine needles, so far they have held up two flannel backed tablecloths that I sewed together; floor to ceiling and almost wall to wall. My wall can hold a queen size quilt and stay up. Total cost around $6.00.

How about sewing some loops or attaching grommets and then use those Command Hooks they advertise on TV. That way you wouldn't have to punch holes in the wall.
quiltsRfun, you're brilliant. best, d |
My son-in-law put up a decorative curtain rod over a double closet door....put weights on the end of the heavy flannel wool fabric..works great and when I don't want it roll it up and tie with ribbon ..out of the way ..works great...and cheap to do..

The Command Hooks are the solution if the walls are fairly smooth. I use them to hold design walls up at retreats. At home, however, my walls are textured, and don't stay up as well.

If your wall allows it you could put some sort of hook to hang skirt hangers that clip the flannel, but are still temporary
|
3M has hooks that don't harm the wall, the you could hook the tablecloth up. Try it??????
|
I use thumb tacks and a flannel tablecloth as well. Since its my quilt room my husband is okay with it. I've hung a queen size quilt on my wall. My walls are in my little quilt room are made of gyprock.
|
But I like the idea of the 3 m hooks. If you go this route let us know how it works okay. My quilt room is in Newfoundland, Canada and I'm a snowbird in Phoenix Arizona for the winter.
