If you don't want to deal with bleach (a good idea), then I would try using an oxygen product. There are more of them out there than Oxyclean. Use the hottest water the material can handle. You may have to do it more than once. -

Seeing as it is not useable with the black spots, try some peroxide on a spot. If it works on it, then you can do the rest. Hope it works. If it doesn’t, maybe you could make a runner from the useable part? 😊- See 1 previous

A 24 hr soak in Borax in the hottest water you can add will do the trick too and then the whole piece can be used as a table cloth again! -
