That last one's pretty funny eh? And it ain't even Wednesday yet!

Alas, if I didn't have enough to do, I decided to participate in Cherry House Quilt's Little Bouquet Quilt Along.

I L-O-V-E love Cherri's blog and all the work she does. She is a truly gifted woman who loves her craft and her family -- sound like someone you know?? Anyway, a few weeks ago Cherri whipped up this adorable mini-quilt and all of us followers just went mental and needed to know how to make one ourselves. And so, the Little Bouquet Quilt Along was born.

I will be trying to post as I go and you can also follow the group's progress on Cherri's blog and on Flickr.

Cherri, I'm getting my green strips together and am grabbing up some NFNW interfacing at Joann this morning!

Hooray! My first quilt-along!!
