Personally, I'd use white or off-white because that is the color of most batting and the color of the batting can influence how the top looks. White fabric (and other colors too) will look different on a black flannel than it will on a white flannel.

Are there directions someone could recommend for constructing one? I would think it is just a wood frame with the flannel stretched over and stapled? Would you use batting to make it a little padded? Or is it over a sheet of plywood or something?
I have a 5 bedroom house, live alone, and I'm thinking of taking out two walls and adding one in the middle of the 3 small bedrooms on one side of the hallway to make 2 larger rooms. I need more room in my sewing room. Can hardly turn around with two tables, ironing board, shelves, etc.

pittsburgpam the way I am making mine is with the thick 1" foam insulation board you get from the home store. They are four feet by 8 feet and weigh nothing at all. I will cut mine so that it is four feet by four feet and cover each peice with flannel then "hinge" them together so they stand like a book on end. I am thinking I will use elastic to hinge them. That part is still fuzzy in my mind at this point. But they are easy to put something into if need be.
