This is just lovely.  I agree a real work of art.  Love the colors and the patterns.

Thanks so much for your compliments.  This was my first project posting on this site!  I adapted the draft from the Flourishing Wave draft in M. Davison's book.  I just put 4 of the "leaves" in the four corners of the cloth.  It was an all winter project, slow and steady with 2 busy shuttles.  I ended up with 8 tablecloths!  The multicolored warp inspired me to try many different colors in the pattern wefts.  The cloths I ended up liking best were those with a contrasting colored pattern weft, such a blue and deep turquoise.  I really like the feel of the 20/2 warp and tabby paired with a 5/2 pattern weft.  It drapes but is also substantial on the table.
