These blue plates were from The Netherlands, though there were some pretty ones from Japan and Germany, and The Czechoslovakia.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13141251905909903805noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21367476.post-78224674428749709142019-05-20T10:27:33.374-04:002019-05-20T10:27:33.374-04:00Love the blue and white dish.

Perhaps a tablecloth? I think the second group of yarn must just sit on top of the bottom round and the candle stuck in the middle. Nice idea. I've seen yarn bouquets before. I'd love to get one! :-) Your shawl is coming along. You have so much going on. I wouldn't be surprised if it takes you a while to finish it. You'll feel so accomplished when it's done.Sandiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08439303528712333600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21367476.post-48072223659184326262019-05-17T09:21:07.912-04:002019-05-17T09:21:07.912-04:00Thanks so much for the visit and sweet comments. ...Thanks so much for the visit and sweet comments.

We inherited some blue and white crockery from a family member and have added to it over the years. It is used every day.<br />Your shawl is looking great.<br />Best wishes<br />EllieEllie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12437259693600577503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21367476.post-20744318484904197912019-05-14T11:12:30.860-04:002019-05-14T11:12:30.860-04:00It's a shame to inherit things without knowing...It's a shame to inherit things without knowing their history, a lesson there for us all I think.
