The search for a new table cloth is going to push me to the edge

At our old house, we had a very "cute" dining room.  Our house was built in 1865 and had TONS of old house character.  Our dining room was a bright yellow with white trim and painted gray blue floors.  I loved our dining room as it also had french doors that led out to a stone patio.  I didn't necessarily have to worry about "decorating" the table.  Our table is a very large wooden table.  It looked very nice in our cute dining room.

And then we moved here.  I still like our dining room, but it presents some challenges.  First of all, the floor is wood.  So now the wood table with wooden chairs on our wood floor is a bit much.  I have three table cloths that I absolutely love.  One goes on around Easter and takes us through the summer.  One is clearly a fall table cloth, and the one that goes on for Christmas is not actually a holiday cloth so it can last until spring.  Our table can be three different sizes so I have many more in other sizes, but for our every day size this is what I have.  And the one that is currently on the table just got a stain on it that washing did not get out.  Ugh!!!!

I have checked out MANY online stores, and so far, nothing I really like.  I LOVE the one I have, so it's hard to beat that.  It needs very specific colors with a spring motif.  Oh, and I hate floral patterns so that is definitely challenging.  I am beginning to think this entire search is going to push me to the edge of insanity!
