Quilting is fun, relaxing and some is for charitable gifts are to raise funds for the church (the Lord's work). So YES, I quilt anytime I want to and have never felt any guilt for it.
My sister in law has a saying about every stitch put in on Sunday will be ripped out as it is the XXXXX's (bad guy's) work.........
I consider that something her Mom taught her. We sewed on Sunday at my house and embroidered. We did things we enjoyed.

Sew on Sunday, rip on Monday. I heard that often enough but
I remember my mother embroidering and she encouraged my sister and me to work on our embroidery on Sundays. We didn't have television to entertain us in the old days. She just didn't sew garments or use her sewing machine.
I think Sunday is a day of rest and we should spend the day quietly, doing what we like.

Absolutely! We are not so rooted in what you can or can't do on a particular day. However, I agree with whomever said if I were visiting and it offended them, I could pass FOR ONE DAY. But if that person were living in my home, they would have to adjust.
