Still shaking my head and smiling! I believe this is the way my hubby would approach sorting fabric into color groups. He's very proud of me for taking up quilting, and tries to show interest and enable me, but I have learned to only ask him to draw out my ideas for quilt blocks on graph paper. He loves that!

My DH is a science guy and he does not get quilting at all. To him it is all "nice, Hon." He enjoys the idea that I go off on my own and entertain myself while he plays around with the garden and his many plants and collection of bugs from the garden which he looks at under the microscope to identify and classify and whatever else he does down there with his seeds, clones and crossbreeds and hybrids, etc., etc. He once asked me why I would take perfectly good fabric and cut it up and sew it and make another perfectly good fabric. But, I see him curled up in the bed with one of the quilts I have made and I know why I quilt, so every morning I send him off to the basement shop to play with his plants and his bugs. I also cook whatever he brings up from the garden and that makes him happy. Together we are warm and fed and happy and busy.
