Tablecloth fix!

I wanted to join 2 102" tablecoths

together for the upcoming Passover seder table.

I mulled over several options, but saw something on

Sewing with Nancy this week that I knew

would work well and be easy to do!

First I cut 2 strips of fabric 3 inches wide by 70 inches long.

I used the batik fabric from my star

quilt which hangs in my dining/sewing room.

I put them wrong sides together, and

 then I pressed a seam down the center as a guide.

I did a wide zigzag seam thru the center.

Then I pressed each side to the center, making a "channel" for the each of the tablecloth edges.

Then I pinned the edge of the tablecloth into the "channel"

and did a zigzag stitch to secure.

Repeat for the second tablecloth.

Needs to be pressed, but I am very happy with the result!
