I wouldn't cover a quilted or fabric table cloth, but one that is lace is a whole 'nuther kettle of fish.

Yours is very beautiful, and I know will be cherished for generations!

Thank you so much, and I agree completely.

Beautiful. That's one needle craft I don't know how to do. My great aunt made me two table clothes that I love to death. I'm sure they will treasure this forever. Great job!! :thumbup:

Beautiful. I have a round one with
a similar pattern made by my ex's
grandmother about 50 years ago. I
don't use mine very often anymore.
Love your chandlier too!!
