I found this table at a yard sale about 5 years ago. I was brown and the top was scuffed up. I painted it white and stapled a piece of vinyl on it. However it is pretty ruff looking again. It needed a new look to fit in to the girls bedroom.
I traced the table top on the fabric. Add 1/2 inch all the way around for seam allowance.
Measure the circumference use a measuring tape because it is pliable.
3. Cut two rectangles one in the fabric you want to use for the skirt and other in lining.
You may need to peice the rectangles together to get it long enough.
The circumference + 1 inch by the desired length + 1 inch.
4. Sew the ends of the the fabric together. Lining to lining.
Fabric to fabric. This will make a 2 big bands of fabric the same size.
Fold up the lining like you are making paper dolls.
Measure up and make the sides and cut in to a scallops. I used a kids plate to get the shape I wanted.
Open up the big circle and lay on top of the table skirt fabric pretty sides together.
Pin down and trim.
Sew together!
Iron flat. Then turn right side out and iron again.
Sew trim in to place.
Pin table skirt onto you table size circle. Sew right sides together.
Iron and turn right side out and Iron again.
Place on your table.
It looks really cute in their room. But now what do I do about those chairs?
That is really cute! Love the scalloped edges. =)
