Bev a couple of the fabrics I sent would make nice table cloths they are "out of the box" colors for any holiday. I bought another length of the pinkish plaid for just that. It will make a nice table liner protector too with the flannel and another fabric for a different season. Unless you've already used it for a pretty quilt.
