Mocha Mousse is Color of the Year

Shades of brown, which include taupe, are calming to me. I always have a taupe quilt in my hoop.

Coffee with Cream Please, 64 X 76 inch coffee themed sampler quilt by O.V. Brantley, 2010. She lives in my bedroom.

According to Pantone, they chose the color because we now want peace in our lives. It nurtures us with its suggestion of the delectable qualities of chocolate and coffee, answering our desire for comfort.
