    I have a huge piece of soft felt (?) that my brother gave me (left over from some weird project the he was working on). I use painters tape to put on wall.

    I really hate it when the voices in my head argue among themselves as though I wasn't even in the room.

    I tried to be normal once......worst two minutes of my life.

    I just have a large piece of batting that is tacked to my wall with push pins. Not pretty, but functional. It is the room dedicated to quilting so I'm not so concerned with it looking nice. I have also wrapped batting or binding on a peice of foam core board when giving demos.

    I'm with the flannel backed cheap vinyl table cloth crowd. I have mine thumbtacked to a wall. I hung a block on it for a couple weeks because I didn't believe it would work and it stayed until I pulled it up. It's held individual squares and whole quilt tops.
    My problem with mine is I find I stay up past my bedtime rearranging squares to see what else it will look like.
    Good Luck.

    Usually design walls are made with 4 x 8 sheets of
    House insulation, they are 1 inch thick.
    Wrapped in a good quality flannel.

    I have fleece on my design wall, I bought really thin fleece and put two layers on board.
    It works more than perfect
    When used a lot, I clean it with that roll you use for clothing, no idea how that is called, And it is good as new
