We finally got my design wall up today. Now my studio is complete!
Here is what we did... I bought two 4'x8' x1/2" pieces of insulation. Lowes has a wonderful spray adhesive, (similar to what you find in the quilt stores) and two 90x108 of Warm and Natural batting. We sprayed the insulation and one side of the batt and placed the batting on. Made sure to do this outside because of the fumes. To hang on the wall, we used corner round molding and attached with screws. It really framed it nicely. In the middle, we placed a few Command strips on the back of the board and the wall so the board wouldn't pull away from the wall. I love it!!! Maybe now some of those UFO's will get finished. |
Wow. I have quilters envy. :O
|
And you have a Kool Kaleidoscope on the wall. How nice!!
|
Somehow this Kaleidoscope needs to turn into a queen size quilt. Maybe if I stare at it long enough it will happen!
|
SUPER.. my design wall is coming... I am just about fed up with the mess in the quilt room....
GOOD LUCK on that turning into a queen... maybe your design wall has magical powers.. KIK |
Great idea! Great quilt start too !
|

I'm so jealous....I had to show my hubby because he didn't know what I was talking about. One of these days...just one of these days...LOL
|
You are sooooo lucky. Nice quilt too.
|
Great job!
|
Great wall! Thanks for the instructions. On my way to Lowe's in the morning.
|
I really like your design wall, and your quilt even more. I think I need to rearrange my sewing room so I can make a design wall. It sure would be better than climbing all around the floor :lol: :lol:

You too can make this quilt! It is Ricky Tims Kool Kaleidoscope. Since you draft the pattern on freezer paper, each pattern is unique!
|
sew way cool. i love the quilt too

I see paper pieced stars, on point, dancing around this, your new medalion quilt!
|
The design wall is great and that quilt on it is fantastic. Thanks for sharing.
|
Great design wall and beautiful quilt. The only big, blank wall I have is in my stairwell. I wonder what my DH would say if ...
|
awesome design wall, love the size
|
Looks great and it's spurred me on to get my design wall passed the R & D department!
|
LOVE THAT QUILT! The design wall is great also.
|
What are command strips? Is that something like velcro?
|
nice
|
Command strips are the tape on the back of the hooks that you can attach to your walls. They are really strong but easy to remove and don't damage the walls.

What a nice design wall and gorgeous quilt in the making on it!!
|
wow, thanks
|
Great job, looks fabulous!
|
Great idea. Wish I had wall enough to do that size.
|
wow super wall, awesome quilt on the super wall
|
Why did you use the insulation?? How does that help?
|
The insulation is really easy to pin through if you need to. It is thick so the pins go in far enough to hold.
|
Both are beautiful. Design wall tried and tested.
