I like to  use double sided sticky tape to the back of my quilt squares, then I can stick them on the wall . or I use a small piece of duck tape I roll it like a ring, and place it on the back and sitck it on my wall that way i can move the pieces around. and see how the quilt looks like before I piece it.
