I have made two quilted tablecloths for special occasion. I love using them outside when the wind is a problem, the heavier quilted cloths seem to not flip up as much than the flimsy ones. I then make sure I wash them in cold water and spray any spots before washing. I also do not put them in the dryer. I chose black and white and black and yellow for the color scheme for the quilted tablecloths. I hate having tablecloths hanging in my lap so by making my own to fit the tables I can measure to the length I like.
Hope this all made sense.
