Right then, oh hallowed experts and trusted friends...advice please. With an oilcloth tablecloth.....will it be suitable for a round table....(not sure if it hangs well, IYKWIM) or do you cut to fit exact area of the top?

It does rather depend on the thickness and pliability but....It should be OK with a decent overhang (20cm?). I'd suggest you cut it/buy it large then trim back if you're not happy. Anyhow the biggest you'll be able to buy is the same length as width (where's confused smiley when you need him) but that depends on how big table is:D

Sorry to hear about the house lost - you must be about fed up about it all now *Hug* for you.

Sigh. Our exchange isn't going o happen today and is questionable whether it will on this house now. So near yet so far! The underwriters are thinking on it today, but its looking unlikely. so, my furniture isn't coming out of storage to be chic'ed any time soon.

Lir...i am so sorry...you must be bitterly dissapointed! *hugs*

Artydoll.... i love your hearts...you make some wonderfull things!
