\"PIND<\/a>
PIND Design sans fabric<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I sold my design wall. I bought the design wall at least 5 years ago, probably more. I don’t remember exactly when, though it was at a Santa Clara Valley Quilt Association show. It was an impulse buy and I had high hopes for the additional design space. Unfortunately, it didn’t really work for me, as it turned out. I know you are thinking “how can she say that?” when I have used it for many, many projects.<\/p>\n

I was able to use it and make quilts. It just wasn’t ideal. I felt that the fabric part was too flimsy for me. The flannel wasn’t sticky enough<\/em> for me either.<\/p>\n

\"Empty<\/a>
Empty design wall space<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

It is off to a new home and my workroom seems a little empty now.<\/p>\n

Since I sold it I have the money to buy the supplies to build a new design wall. I have sweet talked DH into helping me. I need him to cover the Home Despot part of the project. I did some research at Britex a few years ago and think I know what I will get to cover the masonite or Insulfoam. I am using Quiltin’ Jenny’s guide<\/a> as my basis as she has practical tips. My goal is to have a firm back so I can press patches and blocks on to the design wall. We will paint this room sometime, so I need to be able to remove the wall without too much trouble.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
