When your quilt is still in the planning stages, try auditioning various fabric prints and colors by using a design wall. Take a few steps back to see how the fabrics work together.
Tip 2: Make a Design Wall
Design walls can be fashioned from a variety of materials. Flannel is an excellent, inexpensive choice. Tablecloths backed with flannel are another possibility. Pre-printed grids are also available for purchase at your local fabric or quilt shop.
