Unusual application of tablecloth by a costume designer

I really love when this happens - when I find a customer who thinks like I do. Though not my fave Mid Century, I enjoy rocking old damasks and embroidered cloths with outrageous color.

 Fabric is fabric, and with imagination this Art Nouveau tablecloth (in my signature weird colors) became part of a costume for Die Fledermaus

The costume is designed by Christianne Myers, an Etsian from Ann Arbor Michigan who was invited to be a guest designer for Opera Memphis:

"Thought you might want to see how your table cloth got used! I'm the costume designer for Die Fledermaus at Opera Memphis. I painted into the pattern to bump up the color and then the draper assembled it into the overskirt."

With a poem by Gerard Manly Hopkins

Here is an explanation of the technique, photo shows unfinished cutwork on one of the mats - click on pic to go to Etsy.

I'd been trying to identify this cloth, and found this great site called The Little Round Table (note great tablescape) and there she was, in all her colorways (except mine).  The website is open to i.d. suggestions and will certainly get my input as I learn more.

Below is my colorway ("absinthe") for what turns out to be "Butterfly" by Roslyn - will list today on Etsy.  I also snagged the label from The Little Round Table...

BEYOND SHABBY CHIC
Rather than relist some fabric that didn't sell, and since these fabrics were dyed the same color, I decided to combine a vintage and a retro fabric to make this tablecloth - the retro makes the ruffle, which is a generous 12 inches deep!  
I had vintage rick rack which I dyed to match the red colors, have ordered more to finish the napkins, then will list on Etsy.
An easy project for someone like me who really doesn't like to sew!
Below is the same fabric someone else made into a tablecloth, which I dyed and made the napkins for.

Don't know who the designer of this tablecloth is, but it was really inspiring to re-ink the graphics - brush and pen strokes just flowed naturally within the lines...Available on Etsy, for closeups, and the original colors,  click the pic.

I used a tint of Chinese Red (Dharma), which is a warm peachy pink I would call sandstone, rather like a Frank Lloyd Wright desert tan. Flamingo, dark green and chartreuse complete the color.

I'm linking to my Etsy sales page just to be able to twitter it.  Twitit? Oh just Quitit already!

Here is a useful graphic I put together to help date vintage lingerie.

I've never seen one like this before, hence the price.  The banner features all the stars of the silent movie era and beyond - even Sonja Henji makes an appearance!  Now for sale on Etsy.
Here are some more pics.
