Blue Monday is sponsored by Sally at Smiling Sally.
Today I continue sharing gifts from family that contributed to my blue and white collections. As an accomplished seamstress, my youngest sister has spent much time shopping for fabrics. Along the way she saw blue and white fabrics which she gave me.
Blue and white toile fabric - youngest sister
Fabric in Pflatzgraff "Yorktowne" pattern - youngest sister. I happen to have burner covers on the stove that match this design
Fabric for the custom-made kitchen curtains and tablecloth - youngest sister
Six napkins. The ceramic server is from the eldest of my three sisters.
Pull-up shade for the kitchen side door.
Packets of paper napkins – two youngest sisters. The holiday pattern is named "Porcelain" and has blue and white oriental wares along with greenery, red berries and gold ribbons.
Eight store- bought Placemats and eight matching napkins - youngest sister. The placemats has a pleated inset with lighter blue border.

First of all, blessings to your dear Mom. Then a comment on your lovely curtains and shades and other soft furnishings all in blue. They are great and you are a talented seamstress. I also love toile. I have covered two chairs in my sunroom in toile but it is green on a biscuit coloured background which looks antique and doesn't show doggy marks!
Hello Eleanor,
It is good to hear from you. I did not sew my kitchen curtains, etc. They were done by a seamstress who specializes in home decor sewing. Her husband was development officer of the college where I worked for 22 years.
In previous years I had sewn blue and white curtains and tablecovers for fall and winter and green and white for spring and summer.

Love the little dollies and napkin with the sweet blue stitching.

Hi Carrie,
I love all the blue fabrics and designs. My first everyday dishes when I got married were Yorktown. Love that pattern. The handkerchief is beautiful...
Carrie, You have some great places to find some blue. All of it is gorgeous too. Blue and white is a wonderful look and never goes out of date. Good job on your blue today.

Carrie, the fabrics you shared are just so pretty! I love the handkerchief!
Everything in your blue kitchen is so pretty. I really, really like the dishcloths. Their words made smile.
Carrie, I have a real thing for fabric, and I just love all of your blue and white! And that precious handkerchief with the blue mono is just darling. Thanks for sharing with us.
Happy Blue Monday...
