Doesnt anywhere sell tablecloths any more?

[unavailable]

I am looking for a brightly cheerful sort of everyday tablecloth, and cant find one anywhere. The options seem to be either placemats, oil cloths or "special occasion" table linen.

I just want an easy to wash bog standard cotton thing. Is this too much to ask, or is this request in the seriously outdated catagory with doilies, lace and chintz.

I did find a nice stripey cloth from John Lewis a while ago, but I've washed it so often it's looking rather faded.

Does anybody have any ideas/website recommendations.

Thanks

Check out La Redoute's table linen here

John Lewis still has some - nice leaf one, or the dark blue one, or the red spotty one.

I get mine from John Lewis but they are plastic covered ones to protect the table from children. They have some lovely fabrics though.

Yes, Ikea - bet they have more in store than online though.

You must live somewhere really trendy!!

All the old lady type curtain/bedding/linen shops round here have a huge selection of tablecloths, usually with matching napkins!!!

Some rather nice stripy ones at/by Jamie Oliver

The Conran Shop (if you're in London)

Wilkinson's have them, if you've got one near you. Or maybe Argos?

Dunelm do a range that have are fabric but have a teflon coating to help prevent staining.

They don't need ironing either

Thanks for all the suggestions. I have seen a nice one on the La Redoute website, so doublr thanks to SSCap

La Redoute ones are great..and if you dry it in the tumbler..you don''t need to iron it hoorah!

Another vote for La Redoute.

John Lewis and the White Company are quite good for simple easily washable ones. Also Zara Home.
