I have used warm and natural before and liked it very much. (except for the line of black dog hair at the bottom...THANKS ROOKIE! lolol) My new one is made of white polar fleece. I like it too!

Same here. I have it in off-white and was able to cover one wall in my small sewing room.

Right now my design wall is a piece of cream colored felt safety pinned to my vertical blinds. Works pretty well. When I get studio room clean out I will tack to wall in there. Or try to convince my wood working brother to make me a shelf with rod beneath it to mount it with.

I ordered flannel with a 2 inch grid printed on it from cottonclub.com. I like having the grid on it to help keep things straight.
