    I have a Christmas quilt I put on my dining room table during the holidays but I put a clear vinyl over it before serving food. I have a summer quilt on the table now. It's small so I put it on the diagonal.

    Very beautiful looking tables. I would not be brave enough to use quilts with BBQ. Maybe at Christmas. I would probably chicken out and take them off before the food came out. Just me.

    Love it...they look wonderful! I love how you are not afraid to use them! I bought my Mom a table cloth for their porch and she will only use it for special events and only if they have company...Hello...I should have told her to use it every day and I will buy or make you another one if that one ever gets worn. Seeing they also have to use placemats and remove it after the meal...LOL...its like china they only use theirs twice a day. I use mine every day.

    I make quilts for tablecloths and use them all the time. Spills? Throw them in the washing machine and they come out just fine.

    What a lovely idea. Your quilts look great and I'm sure your quilting bestie loved it.

    Nice of you to host the party and the tables look great with your beautiful quilts. You are a braver lady than I.

    The quilts look great used like that. My mom was that way too about using her quilts. She did not want to make anybody one that would not agree to use it daily.
