I have the Fons & Porter flannel design wall pinned on a wall. It has so many loose threads on it. How do I clean it?? A lint roller won't work, and I think a vacuum would be too strong. Any ideas?

I do use my vacuum cleaner with the carpet head on it. Mine is one with a hose and multiple heads to use. I found the lint roller didn't even budge my loose threads so tried the vacuum. I also use basting spray on mine to help keep the pieces on the wall. When I made my wall I just used leftover batting, added a 1 x 2 frame nailed to the wall, then stapled the batting over that and then finished it off with a trim piece to hide the batting edges plus to give it a little added strength when I put a large quilt up onto the wall. I usually vacuum the wall after every project.
