KATE'S SEWING ROOM; CHEAT'S TABLECLOTH [READY IN ONE, TWO, THREE!]


Cheat's Tablecloth
So; you are a busy mom, caregiver, career woman. We've all been there!
  A function or party or meal is coming up, and you don't have a tablecloth. [Or, on one famous occasion, when I opened up the carefully stored tablecloth, it had a big tear down the side. [?] The jury's still out on that one . . .]

Bedsheet
  A quick cheat's tablecloth is a bedsheet; white, colored or patterned. It's brilliant.
  I always used to keep some tablecloths I bought from a shop at a bargain price for events.
  If the bedsheet is too long for your table, simply lay the sheet on the table, see how long it should be, and fold the sheet at the point it will fit your table.
  Pin the material, and cut to your new size at the fold.
  Then hem the material after tacking and ironing (pressing) the hem. Voila! Superwoman . . .
