Wendy, Love the quilt. What a great way to use up the scraps.
I got the table cover from Ross, It has vinyl on top and flannel backing.

Wendy -- gorgeous!!

I think any cottonlike underside on plastic table cloths would do the trick. Walmart - $3.50-5.00, depending on if they are markdown. Stuff on rolls at JoAnns is too expensive! Do you do the pick up shopping at Walmart (order online and drive over and they load it into the car for you)? If so, you can try one out after your next shopping trip.

I use a piece of insulation for my quilt wall. You know the stuff with the shiny silver backing. It is covered very tightly with flannel. I got it from my sister-in-law's stash when she passed away.(Along with all of her fabric, tools, mats, and on and on. Lucky me!) It is at the very least 25 years old and likely closer to 30. Still very sturdy and is used every day. It could use a new cover becasue it is not longer bright white from being used for so long. It is light weight and the flannel is attached to the back with good old duck tape. Bet she never expected it to last this long!

Wendy - give yourself some grace, please. Do what needs to be done and then some things that bring you pleasure.

Gaijin - Wowzers two arrivals already!

Hi Ladies!

I have received five of my envelopes:
NZQuilter
ibex94
Patrick'sMom
BarbKibler
WMUTeach

I don't know if it's my post office or something else, but three out of the five envelopes were ripped. Nothing fell out, but I wanted to make you aware. One was the entire right side, one about an inch on the bottom, and the other went from the bottom of the envelope up about 25% into the envelope - on the front and the back! The two that did not have any rips were the yellow office envelopes.

My cards should go out tomorrow to my Emerald Sisters!

A month late. Yikes. This little resent package arrived in 4 days. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/eek.png I hope the original package is found by someone who likes little squares of fabric. https://cdn.quiltingboard.com/images/smilies/smile.png
