Tutorial: Make a tablecloth that stays put

Amy from Peek-a-Boo Pattern Shop shows how you can make a tablecloth that stays put. Instead of a flat piece of fabric draped over a table (which can be easily pulled off!), this stay put tablecloth fits snugly around the top of your table. It’s like a fitted sheet, but for your table instead of a bed or crib. In fact, after she tells you how to cut your fabric to custom fit your table, she links to her fitted crib sheet tutorial to show how to sew it up.
