I went to staples and purchased 2 poster boards. Covered them in flannel. Cut to size and stapled all around the edges. You can't see the staples so it works. My only problem was that I didn't have enough of the same color. But it works.
Using it with current WIP.

OH you all gave me a GREAT IDEA on how to make a design wall. I bought one of those tri-fold mats that you put on the table top and pin fabric on. I am not sure what they are called. But I HAVE NO USE for it at all and I don't want to toss it out....so I AM going to make a design wall with it...and it will fold up and can be stashed away. Thanks for the cool idea.

The tri-fold was my plan A. :D Having a smaller one just might be practicle if you are having issues with building your blocks. I still might go get one. PS, I call it a contraption or a thingy.

That is sweet! I don't have a way to transport something that large. Sort of cumbersome on a bus. Wait, I'm forgetting, we don't have a Staples around here. One hardware store and Walmart. :thumbdown:

My design wall is a fannel backed vinyl tablecloth I picked up at Big Lots for $3. I sewed a casing on one end and hung it from a curtain rod attached to the top of the wall.
The blocks stick to the fannel backing so I can arrange them however I need. And it is easy to rearrange them if I don't like the way they look.

I love your idea! Design walls or design boards are the bomb! I found a cheap pc of board where a new home was being built. I asked if it was trash & they said it was. So I asked if I could have that 1 pc of maybe 20 inch square. Sure take it! So I did and covered that with some batting & felt & I have that propped in a chair beside my machine to put blocks or block pcs on.I love it. So even a sm pc of cardboard would make a great sm sz design board.
