I pinned a queen sized Hobbs thin batting to my wall. It works great. I have almost my whole quilt up there, and I have only had one or two blocks fall, usually when I am working around my long arm and brush by them. They stay on great. I used old sewing machine needles from my long arm to hang it with, but after realized that thumb tacks would have been better.

Cream colored fleece held up by Velcro with one side stick on and one side sewn on. It works great. The only thing that'll bring anything down is a swishy Border Collie tail too close.

I use the Warm & White batting. Works great.

Batting stretched around two 4x8 or 4x6 sheets of wall board. They can be stuck in a corner when not in use or leaned against the wall. Pins go in easily. Lightweight blocks stick without pins. Easy and quite reasonably priced.

You can also purchase a flannel fabric with a grid on it. I think it's about 2" apart. It's really nice for getting your pieces all lined up square.

I have this one too. I love it!

Thanks for all the suggestions. I have a design wall but the quilt blocks fall off. I don't want to have to pin so I think the flannel that was used is too light. I will continue to watch this topic and read the great suggestions.

Try fleece ... I put a remnant up on my wall with painters tape to try it. Then put some blocks on, and tried some joined together. Left them for a few weeks .... and all stayed in place!

It sold me on the fleece as being the "right" way to go.

It just takes a swipe of the hand when putting the blocks onto the design wall. I have the luxury of a permanent mounted design wall. Those with sheets/fleece/batting just hanging, where you can't do the swipe so easily probably won't have things stick as easily .... or as long!
