@ Jim Simmons: 26 cm diameter over kilnstands with on the top ceramic thick paper (felt ?). As I did for tealights but then square and not so big. Jan

The circle will sag like the square, by folding in a few places. If centered on the post it will end up with even height edges without the peaks you get with a square drape/sag.

Do a test with a circle of float to see if you get the effect you want.
