Quilters board idea

I have very limited room to put in a flannel board for viewing my quilt blocks . But i got an idea.
Use an old window  blind the kind that pulls up or down. Take the blind off the wooden dowel ,( most of the older ones do , some of the more recent ones don't have wooden dowels) replace this with your made to fit flannel quilters board. I would measure the area you plan to install this. Buy white flannel to fit and if you like some nice backing material , sew them together to fit the blind attach. Then hang where you want . This way when not in use you can just pull like any blind and poof rolled into storage .
