I love it!
And here is a poem from her linked page, not mine but so true!!:

A POEM FROM MY AUNT BONNIE WHO ALWAYS SHARES GOOD STUFF
Best poem in the world =
I was shocked, confused, bewildered As I entered Heaven's door,
Not by the beauty of it all, Nor the lights or its decor.
But it was the folks in Heaven Who made me sputter and gasp-
The thieves, the liars, the sinners, The alcoholics and the trash.
There stood the kid from seventh grade Who swiped my lunch money twice..
Next to him was my old neighbor Who never said anything nice.
Herb, who I always thought Was rotting away in hell,
Was sitting pretty on cloud nine, Looking incredibly well.
I nudged Jesus, 'What's the deal? I would love to hear Your take.
How'd all these sinners get up here? God must've made a mistake.

'And why's everyone so quiet, So somber - give me a clue.'
'Hush, child,' He said, 'they're all in shock.. No one thought they'd be seeing you.'

Years ago my secretary came into my office and said you have an appt. tomorrow with "a realllllllll Hoochy Mamma!" I had never heard the term but she enlightened me...she said she calls the ladies who walk around "advertising their bodies in risque clothing, using vulgar language and being loud and too touchy feely as being a "Hoochy Mamma." Do you suppose a Hoochy Corner is a loud, vibrant corner on a quilt????

Must admit I had never heard of this expression before with regard quilting.
