New summery tablecloth
 
2 Attachment(s)
Decided I needed a new table cloth for my 40" round table. Have had my patriotic one on the table, decided it was time to put it away.
Wasnt sure how hubby would feel about it but he Likes it! Said its a great summery one. :)

I just love the flowers in the middle, your table cloth is sooo in bloom, great job.

I've never made a tablecloth. Do you use batting or just a backing on it? Yours is very nice!

Love your choice of colors! Nice tablecloth.

Charming and pretty! Nothing like a tablecloth to dress up a kitchen, and yours is home-made which makes it extra special.

The center flowers are soooooooo pretty! Some look like bluebonnets, but can't be sure...very pretty.

Very pretty tablecloth. I was wondering the same thing. I tried just backing but it seemed too flimsy to quilt, then I started using the thinnest batting I could find but its a bit too much for my little kitchen table. Was wondering what others have used. Wondering about flannel...

I have used very thin polyester batting, flannel & just a layer of muslin in the center of table cloths in the past. Most have the batting. My 4 th of July table cloth I used fusible batting in. All have worked fine. I have found I always have to iron the ones with batting after laundering. This one I haven't backed, quilted yet, just put it on the table to see if the overhang was what I wanted or if I wanted to add another row/ border. Decided it's a perfect fit as is so will batt, back, quilt it next. I had thought if hubby didn't like it I would have kept it growing and made a large quilt-- happy I didn't have to do that. :)

You are so right. Good job. It is very summery. Love the batik colors.

Can't believe you'r going to EAT on it! It's very very pretty!

sewvicki 07-26-2016 07:45 AM

Bright and cheerful and definitely summery. Nice job.

marymm 07-26-2016 07:52 AM

I think it's fantastic. I also think the center is definitely Texas wildflowers, including bluebonnets. That means it would also be great in the spring!

Very pretty.
