My husband is a pastor. He works every Sunday night, sometimes he is only home for about an hour in the afternoon to eat lunch. I go to church in the morning, but Sunday evenings is sewing time for me. DH works with the College group on Sunday evenings and usually doesn't get home until between 9:30 and 10:30. Most of the time, I get the most hours of sewing in on Sundays

Quilting is how I relax. I think that if it were a lot of work, no, maybe not, but I am able to let go and just not think or worry about anything. I understand that Sunday was the day where no work was done, but things have changed so much, and we work so hard that we have to do something to relax us..and quilting is it for me.

Generally that is the longest stretch of time I can give to quilting...the rest of the week I'm tired from work and I try not to sew much when my DH gets home as I treasure my time with him so much more than anything else.

I know for a fact the pastor's wife sews on Sunday. She goes shopping, to ballgames, or does anything else she wants to do and many times doesn't make it back in time for the Sunday evening service. She made the remark once that she married her husband not the church. I've liked her ever since.
