When I host our Bunco group, I pull my lap size quilts to use as table cloths. (It's only once a year and I secure them with clothes pins around the legs so they don't move.) In fact, we had hardwood floors installed in the family room and I was going to have to place table and chairs directly on the hardwood. So I got a larger quilt ready for binding and put it under the table and chairs. It worked great protecting my floor! And everyone was so impressed!

I have made some quilt tablecloths. Many people really like them. I found that the best thing to remember is to keep them as flat as possible. Either use very thin batting or no batting. Depending on the quilt pattern, it can be helpful to make a table topper to place over a solid cloth to eliminate the business of a quilt cloth used with dishes, silverware, etc.
