I had a specific look in mind for my table, but as I played with the shapes, I could easily see more possibilities.

I also discovered that if you want to fold the fabric accordion style, then it’s easiest to do so when you cut and fuse separate pieces of fusible web to the fabric—instead of 1 large piece.

It naturally folds in between the fusible web and stays quite flat.
