We found a Saarinen calacatta marble tulip dining table at the giant DWR warehouse sale over the weekend for 40% off the retail price. The edges are a bit chewed up here and there, but still very good condition overall. I wasn't expecting the table to be so heavy, so as Jacek and I unloaded the table from the truck, I nearly destroyed our new purchase when my arms gave out and the table came close to crashing to the street! Luckily I regained my strength at the last minute. I should've known it would be heavy, it's marble!
My mom likes to go all out when decorating the table for Christmas Dinner. She goes to similar lengths for Thanksgiving.
I've noticed that I like taking pictures of empty tables. This is the first one I'm posting.

This is a huge table runner I sewed up using about 75 pieces of selvedge. I machine sewed each strip by top stitching it to a piece of white fabric and continually added each selvedge strip over the previous strip and top stitched to the one below leaving about 3/4 of an inch of the printed fabric showing. I backed it using the same white fabric. The top and bottom borders were made from scrap selvedges used in the runner. The colors were positioned from red, orange, yellow, green, blue, pink, brown, black (no purple as I don't have any purple fabric - I guess purple isn't my color!). On the center of the table runner, I used selvedges from my many multi-colored fabrics and positioned them vertically to break up all the horizontal lines.

I guess I gotta buy a bunch of new fabric to build up my selvedge stash again!
