Default Design wall - could I make it out of flannel?

I have built in bookcases in my sewing room and I want to hang white flannel fabric to cover the bookcases and use as a design wall but I also need to be able to open the "curtains" to access the books, etc. Would flannel be heavy enough to hold the quilt blocks? Do you think I should put weights in the bottom hem to make the flannel hang flatter?

I was thinking just to get two curtain rods to hang the flannel but would something else be better so I could close the two panels together. The width is about 100 inches.

What do you think quilters? Suggestions?
