I think the tablecloths are lighter weight than the sheets and will hold better to the wall with just tape than sheets would. I actually stapled my tablecloth that I got on clearance from Walmart for 50 cents to the wall of my craft room because I didn't think about using blue tape. A bonus is that the tablecloth was red and white 1 inch checks which show through faintly and can be used as sort of a grid. I use a tape roller to get the threads off the wall. I always have a tape roller around to get the threads off my clothes when I'm through sewing.
