Please let me know if everyone quilts on Sunday, or is that a day that you you take off from quilting. The reason that I ask is because my Mother-in-law always told me that I shouldn't sew or quilt on Sunday.

Why not? It's not the same as work, which is probably the reason she said not to. At least, I find it a good way to relax. . .

I quilt 7 days a week and would make it 8 if they'd add another day for me. LOL!!!

It's often the ONLY day I can quilt. I work full time, am busy after work. Shopping/errands on Saturday.

My Grandma said, "every stitch you sew on Sunday you will take out with your nose in heaven". At least I'll have something to do when I get to heaven:)

If it is a way for you to relax and enjoy the day, then yes, by all means do so.
However if you are going to get yourself into a knot with the project you are doing, then perhaps it would be best to find another form of relaxing on Sunday.

sometimes but some of the older generation doesn't believe in quilting on sundays.

Yes, I do. I am taking a break from quilting now. The weekend is when I do most of my quilting. I'm not able to do alot during the week, too tired after getting home from work and doing all the evening things that need to be done.
