Well, it has been a long two or three years, but today the last two pieces of Corelle Snowflake Blue I wanted - two serving bowls - arrived. An eBay seller had them priced reasonably and the shipping charges weren't bad, either.
So, I now have all the Corelle I wanted - eight place settings, each consisting of dinner plate, luncheon plate, bread-and-butter plate, hook-handled cup, saucer, soup/cereal bowl and dessert/berry bowl. I also have a creamer and sugar, two platters, two 8-1/4" serving bowls and two 10-1/4" serving bowls.
I'm still looking for some Pyrex Compatibles pieces in the pattern, but if you were one of the people keeping an eye out for the Corelle for me, please know that I'm done!
I'm pleased with myself, and also grateful to friends like Ben swestoyz, who unearthed several of the pieces above, plus some Pyrex in the pattern. Snowflake Blue is one of the more uncommon Corelle patterns; it was one of the original four offered, and the first to be discontinued, so it does not survive in anything like the quantities seen in the other three original patterns - Spring Blossom Green, Butterfly Gold and Winter Frost White. Putting together eight places plus serving pieces in Snowflake Blue took some real effort.
Thanks to everyone who was looking! Now, on to finishing up the Pyrex Compatibles and the Oneida Twin Star....
