Design wall going up in the new studio

I am in the process of completing the layout/design of my new home studio. We moved in August but I didn't move the sewing room until late September. One of the things I desperately needed in my new studio was a design wall. With a design wall you can place blocks up on the wall and step back to see if the color and placement is pleasing to your eye. I find it especially useful when making Tshirt quilts so I can be sure the overall design of the shirt is good. I also use the design wall to pin up tops from customers so I can stand and stare to get ideas on custom treatments that will work on their tops.



The final step will be to cover the whole thing in flannel. Then fabric will stick to it and I can still use pins if needed.
