That's always been the reason I didn't join a book club. I have so many books I really want to read that who wants to read what other's prefer just so you can discuss it?
That's always been my problem with quilt and sewing guild "challenges". I prefer to work my own way and not have to spend time doing something that someone else thinks will "inspire" you. I usually just end up frustrated that I'm spending time doing this when I could be doing something I enjoy. I used to belong to a wearable arts guild that insisted that you participate in their challenge. I currently have 2 challenge garments hanging in my closet that I made while a member of that guild. Each has been worn once. It was a huge waste of time, energy and money.
