Scribbly Stitched Table Toppers

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Doodle Tablecloth Brings Art to the Dining Room

— July 4, 2011 — Art & Design
The Doodle Tablecloth will turn your kitchen into a creative culinary craft room.

The Doodle Tablecloth is designed by Stitch Designworks and is available to several different vendors. This amazing table topper is made out of cotton drill, and resembles a giant piece of graph paper -- holes and all. Slip this gargantuan graph paper over any surface to turn it into a doodle-drawing board. The Doodle Tablecloth comes with colored markers that don't stain the fabric; it is fully washable so you can let your imagination run wild during every meal.

Dine with a Doodle Tablecloth to spice up your mealtime.
