I know what you mean. I think part of the reason it can be so hard for me to listen to is that I have been looking for an artistic outlet for a long long time. I can't draw or paint, I'm not a particularly snazzy dresser. But I love color, and I was thrilled to find quilting because I feel like its useful, creative and its part of my heritage.
