| Two folding chairs provide a platform to hold the bolt of fabric as I roll out two yards. |

| A jug of water weights the fabric down at the two-yard mark. |

| The cutting mat is taped to the table at a convenient spot to cut the fabric. |

| Et voilà! 20 two-yard lengths of Osnaburg for 10 round tables, + 3 for banquet table drapes, + 2 odd ends in case more is desired somewhere; 3 linen banquet table coverings; and 10 silky scarf-sized pieces for added pizazz around the centerpieces. |

| Adhering strictly to the Doggie Rulebook, Lucie finds the most inconvenient place to lie while I'm cutting all this fabric. |
And all this was accomplished in just a couple of hours! I kept thinking how proud both my parents would be of how I jury-rigged this very functional setup out of materials at hand. They taught me well.

Guess where Sam's fave place to lay was while I eas cutting fabric? Immediately behind my feet so if I stepped back.... I rearranged furniture so he no longer has room behind me while I'm cutting, so now he lays down immediately behind my sewing chair instead. At least I'm seated when I run into him now. Someday that dog is going to cause grievous bodily harm. Glad you got all your fabric cut--be sure to post pics of the dressed tables!
