I love these dishes :) I've been buying them one at a time at yard sales for about 10 years now--have bought them in ME, VT, NY, and now in OH! :) I figure that I'll have a nice set about the time we start using "real" dishes (still using plastic right now, but kiddos are getting more responsible. . .) Hit the jackpot at Goodwill today and found 5 dinner plates! :) The first ones I ever bought were the coffee cups (I don't drink coffee!) and found the saucers in another state! Anyhow. . .just think they're pretty.

They are pretty, Sheila. I see them every once in a while in thrift stores here. If you want, I can keep a lookout for you. Just tell me what you have and what you want. Can't remember the pattern name right now.

Wow, my daughter is collecting the same ones, she started about 5 yrs ago. Her research showed them to be from the late fiftys, and very popular then.

Taylor, Smith and Taylor's 'Ever Yours' line. The pattern is "Boutonniere". I think that's it.
