Thank you for your idea as well. Still waiting for my design wall…

Wide flannel, double layer, tacked to the wall can be removed and washed if desired. I used large acoustic tiles on my wall then tacked flannel over them so I could use pins for testing multi layers of fabric too. (testing different backgrounds/sashing/additional colors with my intended fabrics). Truly is a design wall for me.

For my design wall, I just used fleece. I attached office clips to it and hung it from 3M hooks on the wall. I tried a flannel backed tablecloth, but my blocks would not adhere to it. Maybe the tablecloth was not heavy duty enough, but my blocks stick to the fleece just fine.

A ton of ideas from Bonnie Hunter's readers on this link.

Thank you for adding to the options. I actually haven't gotten around to this yet but hope to soon.

I'm guessing you found a solution but if not, what I did was to get a full size bed topper from Walmart, 2 of the 3M curtain rod hangers and a curtain rod. I poked holes in the topper and used zip ties to make loops. I strung the topper onto the curtain rod with the waffle side towards the wall and the smooth side out. I cut it to length. It works great. I can either pin or press pieces against it and they stay on. The toppers come in different bed sizes and are pretty inexpensive.

Thank you. That sounds like a great solution for you.
