When you outgrow that design wall you can get command hooks, binder clips, and a flannel backed vinyl tablecloth to hang over the closet doors. It's portable and can be removed when needed. Good luck with your great quilt!

I have the insulation design board too, but I couldn't fit the 4" wide one in my car so I bought 2 of the 2' wide and Duck taped them together so I could have them open 4' and the fold them down to 2' to put in front of my closet. My sewing room is roughly 10'x10' so I don't have any open wall space. Also my ceiling is 7' not 8' in my room, so they cut a l' off for me at Lowes. I usually make lap quilts and baby quilts, so I didn't need it any bigger until I made a Queen size quilt for my daughter. So I made another set and my son made me some large U channel's so I can hold them together. Works great. But a plate rack you hang on the wall will also work. So when I am done, I fold each put them side by side in front of my closet, now they are each 2' = 4' across the doors and I cover it with a tablecloth. When I use both they measure 8' wide and 7' high, I put the quilt on sideways, it worked out great, no more bending over the bed. I can add pic's if you need them.
