I checked the site out and now I know what 'hoochy corners' are. Not what I thought prior to checking the site.

I couldn't find it on the site. I registered, etc. but I didn't see it.

Edit: OOPS :oops: My apology! I tried one more time and got it. One of these days...............

Hoochy momma is a pattern book by Mary Lou Weidman. It is supposed to be a fun, easy way to make blocks, I have never tried it. Check out Mary Lou Weidman or Hoochy Momma quilts. I know this is an old post but you may still be curious.
