Mini Design Board Tutorial
This is a great tutorial by Lori Holt, showing you how to make cute mini design boards. I'm going to make a couple to use when laying out my blocks next to my machine.

cute. Years ago I collected the back boards from legal pads, when I had 30 I gave them a shot of 3M spray glue and laid a pre-cut piece of white flannel over one side. Easy to store and so nice to lay out blocks, stacked beside the machine. When I have a minute or two just sit down and go - not having to 'find my place'. They are in good shape after lots of use being slung around at retreats and workshops - and the glue has not 'crackled' or discolored the flannel.

Great idea..Thanks for sharing..

I purchased several of her boards knowing that she also gave instructions for making them. I really like them and they are easy to transport quilt pieces from table to sewing machine.

I use my 2 sided ironing/cutting board "Quilt 'n' Press' from June Tailor. What I believe to be a good idea with these design boards though is when laying out the pattern rows to you would have them right there in sewing order and Just bring the boards over.

This is so cute. Thank you.

I made one of these and I love it. I take mine to retreats. Easy to transport.

I made a few of these and use them a lot. Not always, but a lot. They are nice for when you need to set a block up before sewing it.

Just made one last night and I LOVE it!! I used it all day today! It was fun to m a key also! Although I did have some problems with it but learned from them and know any more I make will be great!
