Go cheap and get a flannel backed plastic table cloth from the dollar store. (Or use the old one that you had for the picnic table :) ) My basement walls are cheap wallboard so I just stapled mine on. But my friend got a piece of dowling and stapled hers around it. Then hung a couple of hooks on the wall to hold the dowling. That way, it is removable.

Meant to add--you could always draw your own grid with a sharpie or pen.

I've heard of the tablecloth ones. Not a bad idea!

Excuse the mess. I have a very large design wall area. The piece in the center is one of those Fons and Porter design walls with the grid (which you can't see on the fuzzy side--duh what's the use of the grid then?) The pieces on the left and right are those cheap fuzzy backed table cloths from Dollar Store.

I have multiple projects in the works or at least up on the wall so that I don't forget about them. Right now I am working on my second Labyrinth walk and concentrating on Block B.

I had cork board installed on my wall, then covered it with a light weight batting. Most of the time, blocks stick to the batting but if I need pins, they easily go into the cork board. If you didn’t want to install on the wall, you could get a large cork board at an office supply place and cover it.

I was given 3 rolls of flannel backed plastic. Used a piece on wall for my design wall, and it works great! My walls are unfinished, so I used push pins.

I used insulation board covered by fleece. The fleece is sold by the yard and is over 50" wide. It comes in a lot of colors and I bought an off white. It works great.

WHAT? Please explain.

Several grid pattern flannel by the yard Are available. Kaffe fassett has gridded flannel by the yard. There is also another brand I will search for you.

I found the other source.It's Robert Kaufman Gray flannel grid and it's available at hancocks of Paducah. I think I paid 9.99.
