I make chenille baby bibs, and I hear all of the time "they are too pretty to get dirty"...
they are bibs!
My Mother always gave baby quilts away and she would get so mad when the Mother wouldn't use them because the baby might get it dirty. All of the quilts she made for my daughter were used and still are being used :)
Remember the couches that had vinyl covering in the 70's an 80's??? soooooo funny...
to each their own I guess??
I vote for using them :)

does'nt that just get you . I have a friend,she has a long arm business and when anyone brings her a quilt the first thing she does is look for the scant qt inch. I won't take her any more of my quilts to quilt cause it really ticks me . All i want to do is scream "hey who made you seam allowance queen " my I feel better -ha

I do not have a table topper but I do have several of my mothers crochet dolies. I do not cover them . I use them. She would not have it any other way.
I like the way you think about the ketchup stains. lol.. I am 100% with you. USE THEM.
