    They are beautiful. I am looking for a tablecloth quilt but without batting as I thought glasses etc would wobble etc on a quilted surface. May need to change my idea.

    I just panicked when I saw the bitter of BBQ sauce on the quilt! I think I would have covered them with clear plastic tablecloths!

    I made a quilt for my oblong table and I use it when I am having company. I works as a hot pad too. It is maroon so it is dark and doesn't show stains. I use my quilts that I keep and just wash them up. I don't always use soap so I guess a lot of times I am just rinsing them. I throw them in the dryer and that is that. So far they have held up. I think I made my first small quilt in 2000 and it covers a footstool and gets washed a lot. It is a little faded but otherwise it is okay. I like to make things and use them and I hope my quilts I give away are used also.

    So I loved seeing those quilts on the tables. It looked really festive.

    This is great idea! So summery and festive! The quilts are beautiful on display. So often we have quilts folded up just waiting to be used, touched, and caressed. Thanks for sharing .
