An inch side by 60 inch
Both sides have a plastic coating while the other has a flannel coating. You might use it to hold your fabrics.
If this is the wrong side, you need to place your fabric pieces on the flannel side, and the plastic side is the side you adhere to the wall. It works really well.

We are quilters! These are indispensable! Make sure you have two! To the left of the FONs are the Fons & Co It is the wall above my closet doors with the Porter Quilt Design. The 3M Command hooks # 17067CLR- used for this project were A Vice President is It is shown in the picture on the design wall next to the block. Due to their clear design, they barely appear if the Design Wall is in the down position. A gridded design wall makes it easy to align your blocks and estimate how big your quilt will be. Additionally, the surface holds fabric very well, which makes it easier to align your blocks. In fact, it took more than a week for the entire 61" x 69" jelly roll to quit working. It is possible to lay out your blocks on the bed if you do not have a place to hang it. . . (Ever tried Several of these hooks are actually capable of hanging two or three design walls at a time. Alternatively, you can use the command hooks #17006CLRVPES which are smaller and less noticeable as shown in the photo with the jelly roll quilt.
The design wall my son just installed is so great. I no longer need to lay my quilt out on the floor to see how it looks. I appreciate that I do not have to worry about it getting in the way when my grandchildren visit. I think this is the best quilting and sewing tool I have ever used! I highly recommend buying one for anyone who quilts or sews as soon as possible you won't.
The reviews on this item were not great lately, but I decided to buy it anyway after looking at the feedback. There was criticism of the thin and poor quality of the flannel by some reviewers. As far as I am concerned, this is not A flannel would be a better choice than the usually suggested "buy a cheap table cloth and hang it up. ". It is very nice to hold the tablecloth because of the uniform weave, instead of the scraggly feel of cheap tablecloths. There is no doubt that However, the 2 inch grid of the vinyl can still be seen through this. It could be useful for those who are design-as-you-go quilters and for those what want to lay out their blocks. In terms of holding up quilt blocks or even large sections of quilts, I am satisfied. For the blocks to adhere well, the instructions suggest you hang the picture on a flat wall that does not have windows, door frames, or other obstructions. My choice would be to do something else if I had that much space. Then, I hung it over the window frames and sills, and I hung it from the side. If you take care to smooth the blocks into place onto whatever 'flat surface' is behind the framing, this method works fine. Is it someone I would recommend it to? The answer is yes. Due to the fact that I work on several projects at the same time, I ordered another.
Although it's not very pretty and pretty wrinkled, it's a good price and does exactly what it says on the label. I hung it up with clear 3M hooks. Despite having a slick surface against the wall, you can still see how the grid pattern is laid out. Having the blocks when I can stand back and look at them compared to having them on the floor or on a table makes me so happy.
This item has poor craftsmanship and I am very disappointed in it. There are no evenly spaced or level hanging grommets on this metal wall sculpture. are always looking for Who is responsible for this? There's a problem with the backing flannel in that it is too thin and has insufficient nap to hold 9" squares reliably (forget about batiks over 10 inches). They do not cling to one another AT ). I have run my hands over the material to roughen it up, but it did not seem to work. My design wall would have looked better if I had kept the packaging because I would have returned it and used a flannel backed tablecloth from the dollar store. Worked for me too.
The fact that it's portable is a major selling point for me since I don't have a sewing room. A simple, intuitive interface makes using the device a breeze. The only thing I would have liked is a double sided version. There is a grid pattern on the back of the vinyl. There's no way for anything to stick to it, so it is It would be better if the grid were on the flannel part to allow for accurate alignment of pieces. I have been using this design wall for about three months and NOTHING sticks to it any longer. Since I can't keep my quilt design together due to the pieces falling off, it is difficult to complete the quilt. Neither would I recommend this nor would I purchase it again. You can easily buy flannel instead of having to deal with the hassles.
Having a design wall like this is fantastic. I love the size and the grid. The command strips (medium size) were used to attach the seven grommets to the wall after reading the reviews. My favorite part of the couch is that I can take it down and put it away if I need to use it as Prices were reasonable for the product. I did not care for the thinness of the product. It has a slight feel of "shower curtain lining" plastic on back, with a grid pattern. It features a grid pattern on the back, which is made out of a white Light cotton fabrics like broadcloth, as well as a little heavier, will stick to the flannel, but heavier fabrics will The thicker felt used by Fons and Porter on front of the clothes was not what I expected. The reason I gave it 4 stars is because of this. In spite of this, I would still.
It is easy to miss the hooks when they are down. The program works great! I don't have to worry about taking up wall space in my quilting room because it's not big. A 56 x 72 quilt top like this is available. I was really impressed with how well the Fabric stuck to it!.
