Looking for Big Tablecloth

We just received a big dining table -- it's nearly 10 feet long -- and we don't a have tablecloth large enough to cover it.

We're looking to buy a colored (like burgundy) tablecloth for Yontef about 60" x 140". Needs to be stain-resistant and washable, and doesn't cost a mint.

Frankly, your best choice is probably to go to a fabric store like JoAnns and buy fabric, and have someone sew a hem to it.

I would also second Closeout Connection--although I only know the one in Boro Park, but if you're in the NY/NJ area it might be a good option.

There is one in Lakewood also.

Thanks for your help. I called Closeout Connections in Lakewood. They carry 60" x 140" tablecloths but only in white and cream -- as we all know, colors are bad for shidduchim -- good thing I have sons and not daughters! Wink

I just ordered this tablecloth from Amazon: Lenox Opal Innocence red 140" tablecloth, except when I placed my order an hour ago it cost about $65 instead of $90 and had free shipping (different supplier, I guess).

I have a couple of these from Bed Bath & Beyond. They wash well and last for a few years of weekly use. Even the 140" one is not that expensive. They come in lots of colors.

Rutabaga: Wow, those do come in a lot of colors and sizes. I'll keep them in mind when we buy another big tablecloth for Pesach.

There's a store called the Hive in Baltimore. I've gotten 120 inch tablecloths from her and I think she also carries longer ones. I was very surprised at how reasonable they were, since I was expecting it to be much more (once she told me she had one for only $10 and it was beautiful). I just make sure to tell her my price range up front and she tells me if she has any that fit.

Thanks for your suggestion. In fact I did call the Hive before I originally posted yesterday -- my first thought was to help support a small Jewish business with my purchase. Very Happy

Unfortunately Orah B. didn't have anything that worked for my decor in 140"+.

I dunno. I bought a lovely gold tablecloth there for my 10 foot table, and my friend bought a kind of khaki-greenish one. I also recall seeing burgundy-gold. All in Lakewood. Maybe they are sold out of those colors?

Bed Bath and Beyond has burgundy, deep green, etc. tablecloths in the large size. They are pretty, stain resistant and above all, inexpensive. They also come in off white/cream and pastels, depending on the season. I have many of them in different colors and sizes and when they get yucky I toss them and buy new ones because they are so inexpensive. If you don't have a BB&B near you, go online!
