Dionnahawkins, I read about your stitch mistake, however, I do not understand what it means. Could you explain the term for me? Thanks, hugs.

I think she meant that her mother taught her that Sunday is supposed to be a day of rest, and if you ignored that you would have to pay on Monday, and that is what happened to her. She stitched out a 18,000 stitch project on Sunday and it didn't work out the way she planned.

Thank you jrob, this had me stumped. Hugs and flower.
My sister still goes by that saying. She does no handcraft work or major projects.

Yes, Jrob, when we were kids sewing on Sunday was not allowed. I think because back in those days sewing was not 'fun' but considered 'work', like mending clothes, etc. And Sunday was definitely a day of rest from work, because around here stores were not allowed to be open on Sunday, and we actually spent family time together, going for a ride in the country, on a picnic, to the zoo or the playground. Well, nostalgic this afternoon, I guess. luv, Marji

Well Marji, I think our young people would be better off if we went back to more of those days, mostly the family time.H. *.
