Today begins My Favorite Things CAL. Part One is all about love for coffee and/or tea. Every morning, I usually have a cup of coffee to get me going. How do you prefer your java or tea? Nowadays, I just like mine with regular creamer – no flavorings or sweeteners. I haven’t graduated to just black, and doubt if I ever will. I love to drink my hot coffee accompanied with eating something sweet. Cakes and pastries are a favorite side. Yummy!

If you haven’t purchased the pattern yet – good news for you!  I have extended the FREE deadline to the end of February. This is such a great design to use up all your bits and pieces of stash. You don’t have to follow my color guide, just use what you have on hand. I promise it will look great!
