What Size Tablecloth for a 60-Inch Round Table
A 90 in round tablecloth fits a 60 in round table: it hangs 15 in all round (Sur La Table, Premier Table Linens lists it for tables 55 to 70 in across). For floor length, use 120 in, a 30 in drop (Premier Table Linens).
| Drop | Standard size | Actual drop |
|---|---|---|
| Casual (6 to 8 in) | 90 in round (Sur La Table, Premier Table Linens) | 15 in all round |
| Formal (10 to 15 in) | 90 in round (Sur La Table, Premier Table Linens) | 15 in all round |
| Floor length (29 to 30 in) | 120 in round (Premier Table Linens) | 30 in all round, 1 in on the floor |
