Tablecloths

...come in standard sizes. You'll find a 70 inch round but probably not a square. Some brands (usually more formal styles) have a 70 x 84 oblong...you could cut and hem it (or just leave it! It would only be an extra 7 inches on two sides.)

Two 72 inch runners laid criss-cross on your table would be pretty, too...assuming the table top doesn't REQUIRE complete covering like mine does! Eye-wink I've also seen runners going paralell down the table.

If you're creative, buy a pretty fabric and make one. A 52 inch center with contrasting bands on the perimeter would be striking and you'd always know you had it on straight! If you find a fabric (probably in home decor) that is at least 70 inches, you could use pinking shears to cut it and not even hem!

Good luck!
