Default Hiding storage with table skirt?

I need advice ...recently moved and now my quilting room is half the size without a wall closet or any closet! I have one of those long heavy plastic display tables against one wall for paper crafting and storage underneath. I hate to see the storage stuff.
I was thinking of making a table skirt with a top ruffle that I would Velcro around the table edges.
So here is my plan...is it crazy or is there another way?
Since two sides of the table are against the wall, the remaining exposed edges measure 109 inches. These are the edges I want to cover to the floor. I will want to cut 218 inches of fabric and cut another 218 inches of fabric for the ruffle. place wrong side of ruffle fabric to wrong side of skirt , sew then flip the fabric over the seam and press. Take 1 inch elastic and while stretching elastic sew elastic to the top of table skirt . After elastic in place then sew on Velcro .
Does this sound like it will work? Thanks!
