Dab with household ammonia. It will turn red and will wash out in a
normal machine wash. Assumes that the tablecloth is one that can be washed.

Worked for me.

Sunlight. Strong sun bleaches it in a few days.

Absent strong sun, try a UV lamp?

I'll use this opportunity to inject the following site into the thread:

"The staining capability of turmeric, particularly in the fresh state, may seem
a nuisance to everyÂ*body who must clean cooking tools €” cutting boards are
particularly hard to clean with brush and soap alone. The dye is, however, not
light-proof and fades away after but one hour in direct sunlight."

Plenty about spices on that page. YHBW.
