I love cork bulletin boards...especially two-sided ones. Some things just warrant repeating and cork boards are one of those things. As mentioned many times before I have them in small and large sizes which I buy at thrift stores and I find them invaluable. I'll probably get to this spider block late spring or early summer but for now it is propped up in the living room where I pass it often.
Any project in the progress or being stretched goes on a cork board for a rest... Meanwhile as I'm cleaning, sorting , or moving things about, any thing that just might work on that particular project is pinned to the board. By the time I get to it I have a wealth of embellishments to choose from...Of course I don't use them all but it's convenient to have an assortment to choose from to start with.
I spoke too soon on Tuesday about a pig reprieve as they were back yesterday but I ran them off. I do see a strange truck and people at my neighbors this morning and hope that's a sign something is being done about the pig pen situation.....

Fingers crossed that there's a big pig round up happening next door and that they will be carted off elsewhere so there's no chance of them escaping again. I have two corkboards in my sewing room too - one is my inspiration board and the other is used for damp stretching embroideries.
I have a couple of cork boards in my "room". I like the idea of using one for gathering supplies for a block. I currently use a 12 x 12 project box. Sure hope there is a pig resolution in the works next door. We feel that way about cats here stalking my birds and fish. Understandably your pig issue is must more distressing.
