I mounted a long designer curtain rod over my sliding closet doors. My wall space is limited and that was the only available space to have a design wall. I started out with a large flannel sheet and it works fine, but, I am thinking of making a felt one instead. It would be nice not to have to pin the blocks on.
I take it down when it is not in use. That way I can use the rod the hang clothing on ironing day or to hang items that need repair or altering. My fabric stash and many tools are stored in my closet, and I hated drawing the design board up like a drape to one side. Especially if I had blocks on it. So I put it up only when I need it and keep it folded up when I don't.
By the way lilbitoheaven, I like how you used your baker's rack for your rulers and machine storage.
