What to use for a design wall
#41
I have our old queen size mattress propped up against my sewing room wall. I keep the mattress pad on it, and it works very well. When the kids come I lower it down to the floor for extra bed space. Also works very well.

I got mine done today! We attached insulation board to the wall and covered it with W&N batting. It works wonderful. "Look, Mom...no PINS" I have a quilt on it already and have started adding the sashing. And to think I didn't know what a design wall was a year ago!

I use a flannel backed vinyl tablecloth velcroed to the wall above the closet. When I'm done, I take it down and up goes my insulation board that I use for spray basting attached to the same velcro on the wall over the closet. Win-Win, cha-ching!

I just may have to try insulation board for both design wall and spray basting. Right now I use tables that I have to set up and take down for the spray basting and I have a flannel backed table cloth push pinned to my wall in my bedroom.

Okay, found two...

(Thanks for the other ideas for making a mobile wall everyone!)
