The nice thing is it will just hold your squares or you can pin them on it because it is about 1/2" thick.
Use mine all the time.

My design wall is two vinyl table cloths with the fuzzy stuff on the back. I pinned them together and then pinned them to the wall i my sewing room. I have to use a step ladder if I'm doing a large quilt. Don't know how I ever got along without it.

It's great because every time I walk past I can move something around.

MY girls made mine, it is on a frame covered with flannel
and covers a wall in my sewing room, yep I have a extra bedroom just for my sewing room. As I load up my camper for the summer job with the CORP I am sad I don't have room for my wall. LOL

would never be without one again. when i moved to the basement, the only thing that i liked was that i had big walls. i have a design wall now that's the size of that wall itself. 12' wide and 8+ ' high. not only does the work go faster and you see things better, but it reminds you to get going.
