Expanding My Temporary Design Wall

 Winter is in full swing out here in Podunk.  We've had lots of snow, below freezing temps and I have one doozy of a winter cold that has made me a bit lazy the last few days.  No problem, throw on a sweater, take little Tylenol, and break out the space heater and I'm ready to sew!


My Bow-Tie quilt will finish at 90x90.  The design wall isn't large enough to layout the entire quilt and even if it was big enough it's behind my sewing table. I plan to rearrange the studio soon to solve this issue, but for now all I feel like doing is work around the problem.  


 The sewing table was moved, I took some measurements and came up with a not so pretty but functional plan to enlarge the design wall.


The current temporary design wall is flannel stapled to the wall.  I didn't have more flannel, but I did find some cotton batting that will work just the same.


Within about 20 minutes the design wall was ready for more Bow-Tie Blocks.


The design wall expansion is working out perfectly.  My room is a mess and it's not pretty but it's functional!
