Well, I have had hobbies, skills that I needed to learn that were difficult, but I enjoyed learning them despite the difficulty. Like calligrapy, and basket weaving and cake decorating and genealogy (which I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE, a hundred times more than piecing). I just can't get there with quilting. I've done it, you saw my garden lattice quilt, but I DON'T enjoy it, so why do it.
