Smiling Sally hosts a Blue Monday in which we can post about anything blue — pretty, ugly, serious or funny — and then link up to other Blue Monday participants.
Today I wanted to show this Thomas Kinkade throw blanket my mother gave me years ago.
It has Psalm 91:2 on it: “I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.”
We keep a throw blanket folded on the backs of sofas and loveseats in both the living room and family room because even with the heat on it gets a little chilly when we’re just sitting watching TV or reading. This one is in the family room. Sometimes when I use it I think about being covered by both my mother’s love and by the promises of God.

Barbara, that’s a lovely throw with a lovely message. He is our refuge and fortress, isn’t He? And He is the best thing in my life! 🙂
Happy Blue Monday…

I love these throws…we sell a lot of them in my flower shop as keepsakes for memorial services. The families seem to really appreciate receiving them.
Yours is very pretty!
It’s a lovely blanket and a wonderful way to really wrap yourselves in God’s promises!
Happy Blue Monday.
Very lovely throw. I really like Thomas Kinkade. The message on your beautiful blanket is truly inspiring. Happy Blue Monday!
Loved the sentiments.
We cover up with afghans and throws also when sitting.
I am not a fan of Kincade’s art as it seems a little depressing to me. But the throw is nice. I know you cherish it as I do anything of my Mother’s.
I think my mom in law has the same throw. It’s lovely.
Thomas KinKade is truly an American treasure. What a neat throw.
My modum was sick and my local internet company finally fixed it. Mr. Linky is up now; please come link in. Happy Blue Monday.
Beautiful throw! I have always liked Thomas Kinkade!
Happy Blue Monday!
Beautiful blues in your throw! I especially like the Kinkade images of lighthouses and coastlines – they seem so mysterious. Happy Blue Monday!
I have always liked Thomas Kinkade images and that blue throw is beautiful! We too keep throws on the couch to cuddle up in! Happy Blue Monday!
We also keep throws on all our chairs to snuggle up under in the winter. The cats love them as much as the people do! Yours is very pretty.
I love it…very pretty!
Your throw is lovely. It must be nice cuddling in it on a cold winter evening. I love the works of Thomas Kinkade. Happy Blue Monday!

Beautiful blue Barbara! I love keeping quilts around on sofas for added warmth! I’m late this week. Have a great Tuesday!
That’s a beautiful throw, Barbara!
I have a set of Thomas Kinkade CDs (beautiful music!) and they came with a booklet of his beautiful paintings.
Wow! That blanky brings a LOT of warmth to you. That’s sweet.
Wow, what a beautiful throw! It goes great with your furniture.
I bought a bear throw for my hubby as a Christmas because his nickname is Bear. I’m dreaming one that has birds.
