Not everyone has to stay with a particular set of interests. But before you abandon ship, you might see if there is a quilters' group near you. Around here, they are guilds, although in some areas, I understand they are church women's groups.
It just might be amusing to take pix of the DH's car from different angles, including the dashboard and have the pix printed on fabric for a quilt, or maybe a bunch of classic cars. You might intersperse those with Mariner's compasses, or make a steering wheel block.
It is very likely you can find a quilt show or guild in a community near you if you use the net for that.
