Romantic Double Ruffled Tablecloth

French Country Cottage Inspired Double Ruffled Tablecloth!!   
 Thank you, Courtney!

Believe it or not, I made this Lovely Little Tablecloth with 2 white queen-sized sheets, I got at The Goodwill. Total cost $6.00 plus some time!!
I also managed to make valance for my bathroom window
and still have fabric leftover!!

Old Sheets are hemmed all the way around...which means 
much less work for you and I!! I have to admit, I've been truly enjoying this, not to mention the other projects it has inspired.

    If you go at the right time, you can find great buys at Goodwill. You certainly did with this table cloth. I never am that lucky.

      LV, I didn't find this tablecloth, it was 2 white sheets I got @ the GW and used to make the tablecloth, gathered every ruffle myself! Thanks for the comment and checking it out!

      Thanks so much for your inquiry!! I'm so glad you like the tablecloth so much. I am flattered, however, I do not sell anything you see on my blog. The projects I share are just for my personal use and hopefully, by sharing them with you, an inspiration for others to attempt projects like this one for nominal costs. This wasn't difficult to sew, I'm no ace at it either...lol... but I know others, that have been able to purchase ruffled "bed skirts" or "dust ruffles" who have achieved a similar look. That way all you have to do is finish one side with the excess..I hope this helps! :)

    You are definitly inspiring. Anyone who can make that many projects with $6.00 worth of sheets is a genius in my book.
    I absolutely love your tablecloth KUDOS!
