Improv Design Wall

I've never had a design wall, and I've never really felt like I needed one until now.  The last time I did a one block wonder quilt, my son was in school, so I used his bed.  Now all my kids are home, and there is no spare bed for me to use.  I've been lying  the blocks out on a batting on top of my bed, but when we go to bed, I have to fold up the batting.  Then the blocks get all messed up, and I have to organize it all again.

Today I hung up a plastic table cloth and pinned the blocks to it.  I can leave this up for as long as I want and decide if this is where I want the blocks to be.  I've worked for 15 minutes trying to get this picture to rotate the right way, but it wants to stay horizontal.

 
These are totally NOT my colors!  It's going to be hard for me to finish this quilt because the colors are so boring.
