Default What -"Why didn't I try that before" moment have you had quilting?

Mine was a quilt design wall -- I kept seeing pictures of them and they are mentioned a lot on these boards...but I quilt in my dining room and it just seemed too "extra". I've spread my designs out on my Living Room floor. Flash forward to this week as I am working on a rail fence quilt with 4 fabrics and I didn't like the thought of all the bending to get the pieces settled on and off the floor. So I went to my basement and within 5 minutes had a flannel backed tablecloth clipped to my wall and my quilt block happily attached. No bending, I can see the design while sewing, and it's fun to play with the pieces!

Why oh why did I wait so long to do this???

So what was your "Wow I should have had a V-8 moment" in the world of quilting?
