Make legs for it, also start with poly cube, scale down little lowest vertices,
Duplicate and position them with snap to grid (hold x):

Our cloth must collide with table, so select upper part of table and make it collision object:
(nCloth->Create passive)

Select table's upper part and in nRigidShape make adjustments as on picture:
