Beautiful! I agree with others-cover with clear plastic and enjoy it!

For years our Thanksgiving tablecloth has been an old patchwork top I got at an antiques show. It's been washed many times and it looks as good as ever. I use it over a liner so it doesn't slip and even tho it doesn't "go with" the good china I love the way my table looks.

Yesterday was the third thanksgiving that I used my quilt/tablecloth and so far no stains. It was hard the first time input it out but I am more relaxed about it now. The first year I jokingly told everyone that if they stained it I would embroidery their name by the stain.

I made my daughter place mats for Thanksgiving and that is what she did.
