Several years ago, I had a sit down dinner party for 25 wine drinking adults. I had 5 tables all dressed with reversible quilts...one side Christmas/winter and the reverse was in fall colors. Each had warm and natural batting. There were a few food spots and wine dribbles but none of the wine glasses was tippy (however there were a couple guests that were a bit tipsy). All traces of wine and food washed out without a problem. One of the quilts is 10 feet long and since Florida has had a "chilly" spell, I am using it on my side of our king sized bed. My husband has used one that is about 90 inches long on his side. Like gramquilter2, I never seem to get around to making one for my whole bed. I liked the quilts on the tables so much that I have just taken them off and put them in the laundry room. That made us have 2 months of Christmas/winter on the tables and a couple weeks on the bed. I'm hoping that decorating in spring colors will warm the weather just a little.
