Good luck. You can also lay your blocks out on a flannel backed vinly table cloth and roll it up. I find the vinyl backing doesn't stick to anything when you put the roll away. The blocks stay in place so it can be a "work in process" without losing your spot.

I too had grand kids to stay with me for a while and little space to sew in, like the lady said about the flannel sheet.or use and table cloth ...bath towel (less space)...... alot of times I put small project in zip lock bag ( if piecing one project put all squares, rectanglees ,half triangles. long 2'1/2' strips in another ) then if you get interuped from the little ones you can roll up ,wrap up project and have it one piece . this work for me and I would tell stories to the little ones and like the lady said give them something to do to help you , they learn with out knowing it ,,,,,,,,,,,,,, ............ hope this helps
