I used 4 foam boards from the Dollar store and covered 2 with W&N batting and the other 2 with flannel just to see which one worked better. Can't tell the difference. Both W&N and flannel work great. I also used command strips to attach the back of the foam boards to the wall so no damage.

I'm able to position 4, 12.5 inch blocks with 2.5 in sashing across and 4 to 7 down with nothing falling off or the "design wall coming loose" from the wall.
OR you can spend a ton of money and get the same results. |
I used two 4 x 8 sheets of foam insulation and covered them with a cheap felt. I have to stick pins in it to keep the blocks up. Now that I have read this I will be changing to batting. Thanks guys!!

I used a queen sized batt of warm and natural. I put it up with push pins around all 4 sides. We are renters and they leave very tiny holes in the wall that paint will cover up. It works great!!

Another flannel-backed table-cloth user. I've done queen sized quilts on mine. Cheap and works great.

I stapled a sheet of batting onto the wall and have been using it for the past two years.
I've never had a problem with it. |
I used headliner fabric on my design wall. It is strong enough that I can vacuum the threads off when needed.
|
I am also a fan of the headliner fabric. I have left blocks or sections of a quilt up for a couple of weeks with no problem.

I use Warm & Natural. I had some left over when I discovered Dream Cotton batting :D
i can put rows after rows after rows up there and it sticks great! |
