Online Trudie Constance Small Round Tablecloth with Ruffle

The Constance print cut as a small round cloth, finished with a ruffled edge. Round is not a styling preference on a round table, it is the correct shape, because a rectangular cloth leaves four points hanging where the hem is otherwise short. The ruffle then does what a plain hem cannot, giving the drape movement instead of a flat circle of fabric. The small size is the one for skirting a side table or a breakfast table rather than dressing a full dining table. Layer it with the matching Constance placemats and napkins, or mix in the Abigail and Beatrice prints.

What size tablecloth do I need for a 48 inch round table? For a round table the cloth diameter equals the table diameter plus twice the drop you want, so a 48 inch round table takes a 72 inch round cloth for a 12 inch lap drop or an 84 inch cloth for a longer drape. The same arithmetic applies to any round table, so measure the diameter and decide the drop before matching a cloth.
