The past little bit I have found an interest in sewing with oil cloth or laminated fabric.
It’s a bit tricky to sew with, but really it’s a great fabric product to use when making something you are going to need to wipe over and over again.
The fabric, though picky comes in a lot of patterns and prints. There are a lot of uses for them too– it’s great fabric.
If you don’t have the oil cloth, you can use a product from Thermoweb — laminating — that goes right over the fabric to make it slick and wipeable. It’s a great product.

Thanks for the love:)
I recently learned about the Pellon product that does this. I lined a new thread catcher with it so threads & small fabric bits slide right down into the bag instead of catching on the cloth. I am also going to laminate it to the fabric for a cushion for the front porch bench cushion so I can just wipe it off when needed.
