A picnic perhaps?

Let's just ignore that this one is currently wrinkly*, okay?

While the plaid may not be as exciting as the flowers for many, it is more unusual than flowers, which seem to be plentiful.

In fact, it is the only plaid one I have ever found.

It's also a bit larger than the first one and I think it is perfect for a picnic!

The same rules apply as yesterday, although there is no need to post on your blog twice, if you have already done so, you will be in twice for any cloth you want.

Good luck to everyone!

*Vintage tablecloths seem to come in 3 versions: regular cotton, heavy sailcloth cotton and cotton rayon blend, this one has some rayon in it I think, hence the wrinkles. The sailcloth ones hardly wrinkle at all, and I never iron any of them. LOL

I'm leaving a comment to say that I think the green plaid is perfectly delightful for this time of year. . .however, please do not add my name into the drawing because I simply cannot promise that I won't repurpose the cloth: my sewing machine always beckons. . .and I respect your birthday request too much to take that chance. :)

I think I have a plaid tablecloth in my linen closet. It's linen (no pun intended) or something close to it. I'll have to check it out.

But it's not nearly as large as this one! So pick me!
