My mother would not sew on Sunday. She said her mother told her if you sew on Sunday, you have to pick the stitches out with your nose! Never did get that.

I would quilt 30 hours a day and 9 days a week if we had them , love quilting on a Sunday I listen to the BBC radio and catch up on what is happening in the world. Cathy

Everyday for me..........if I don't, my DH had better take that as a definite clue that I'm NOT FEELING GOOD! Which is really a rarety. As all mothers can relate, we don't have time to get sick! (And even when green with whatever, the mind somehow insists on feeling guilty!) :roll:

I quilt when ever I can. As others have said, for me is is my time to relax. Some times the only 'escape' I can get.. Oh, and reading the QB.. lol

After church and Sunday dinner, I retire to my studio downstairs and spend the afternoon quilting. Sometimes I put a movie on and really enjoy the day. Like others on here, I don't consider quilting work ... it is pure pleasure for me.

Never did pay no never mind to such things. I do as I please. Its of no consequence. reckon?

Yep thats how we talked till we moved to the city!
Its a day of rest, hear ya.
but one must mind sloth. Idle hands and all. I quilt, I build, I clean house. but I will NOT do business on Sunday. That can wait till Monday. Puppy buyers, customers, all will wait till Monday.

I would quilt,- its pleasure, not work.My Great Uncle Willie always said no horse trading,card playing or business on Sundays--so they played dominoes (cards were ROOK)"CHORES" were still done.
