We are not able to print multiple designs in an individual order of napkins. However, customers have found that ordering two sets with coordinating designs is a good solution.

The article Finding Coordinating Designs and Fabrics is your friend in helping you learn how to locate complementary patterns.

We are only able to print and construct sets of napkins at the quantities found on the site: 2 dinner napkins and 4 cocktail napkins.

All table coverings are printed on Wide Cotton Sateen 6.5 oz.

To ensure your dinner napkins match in both color and texture, be certain to select this same fabric type when ordering.

Cocktail napkins are only printed on Linen Cotton Canvas, and while the scale and basic colors may match your table linens, the light may reflect with a slightly different hue. If perfect matching is of primary importance, we recommend ordering a Test Swatch of the two fabric types before placing your final order.

While fabric selection is always personal choice, Linen Cotton Canvas is a good choice if your placemats are for everyday use. Cypress Cotton Canvas is a slightly heavier weight with a unique basketweave that works for both casual and more formal affairs. The finish of Wide Cotton Sateen 6.5 oz might be more suitable for a more elegant table setting.

Not at this time. Your chosen design will be printed on one side with mitered corners and 1" folded hems sewn with white topstitching. This ensures all placemats match the topstitch finish of our table runners.

For a creative venture, consider making some DIY Double-Sided Scalloped Placemats, or adapting the tutorial to your needs!

All our placemats will be constructed to the standard dimensions of 19" W x 13" H (48 cm x 33 cm). We are not to accommodate any special finishes, sizes or shapes.

Yes. All our Home Decor products are machine washable and can be ironed for a lovely finish. We recommend phosphate-free detergent and cool, delicate settings. When ironing, its best to do so on the back side of the fabric.

While we have not formally tested our products for color fastness, some customers have claimed success when using stain-guard products for extra protection.

The printing process initially compresses the fabric fibers. After you wash and dry your Tea Towel, the fibers will relax to their normal structure and the towel will soften. Over time, repeated washings will create even more room for absorbing water.

While almost any Marketplace design can be ordered as a Tea Towel, only certain designs have been properly formatted and uploaded by artists to print as Tea Towels. The product rendering offers a good representation of how the design will print, so if it seems off-center on the site, you can expect it will arrive with a similar construction. If the artwork was not uploaded to be a tea towel initially, smaller designs with repeating patterns work better. 

If you like how the design looks in the Tea Towel image, you can be confident that is how it will arrive. If the designs seems off-center in that image, or if something else doesn't seem right, it is always better to confirm details before ordering. The article Customizing Marketplace Designs shares how to locate and contact an artist directly, or you can reach out to Spoonflower customer service.

Yes! Uploading your own design for Spoonflower to construct into a Tea Towel is one of the most popular projects on our site. Review How To Design A Recipe Tea Towel to get started, or search our Blog for various tutorials. How to Turn Handwritten Recipes into Tea Towels is a stalwart.

Any designs saved with a Center repeat cannot printed and sold as Home Decor product. To be certain your Tea Towel is sewn correctly, the design you upload must measure 27" x 18" at 150 DPI, and be saved with a Basic Repeat. See How To Design A Recipe Tea Towel for all the details.

No. Table coverings are only printed on one side and are not lined.

No. Spoonflower fabrics are printed on one side. While the hem of your tablecloth will be folded and encased on the back side, much of the reverse will be blank, optic white fabric. For darker designs, a slight shadow effect may be present. 

Our sewing team will select the best topstitching thread for tablecloths, from either white or charcoal.

Table runners will always be topstitched with white thread, which means you can order the same design on placemats and be certain of a well-coordinated finish.

The drop of your tablecloth - the length of the overhang from the edge of the table - is a personal preference that will influence how casual or formal your final table setting looks.

• Casual tables usually have a 6" to 10" drop
• Formal table coverings often hang 15" around the edges

Apply the basic math or refer to the related infographic:

Square/Rectangular

Double your desired drop length, add this number to the dimensions of your tabletop then order the size that most closely matches your new measurements.

Round

Double your desired drop and add to the diameter of your table and choose the closest measurement.

The measurement of 70" and 90" for our round tablecloths is the diameter of the circle of fabric, or from one edge of the fabric, through the center, to the other edge.
