What a wonderful surprise to discover Blue being singled out for appreciation today. I won't add any more palettes to this string as so many of mine were already featured int he article. (Thank you evad ) So I will only add one pattern the one which resides at the top of my bio page and simply restates the obvious:

Yes I Love BLUE !

I want to thank evad for this post and also thank everyone who has added additional Blue palettes. Though I spend many hours here each day I have only been a CL member for a few months. Many of these palettes were created months or years before that and I might never have discovered most of them on my own.
Thanks specially to krishafish and bunigrl33 who took the time to add so many beautiful Blue palettes to this list. And from one Blue lover to another Happy one year CL Anniversary bunigrl33
