I want to say that I don't understand this question. However, I guess it would be more appropriate to ask "Why is it necessary to define myself by other peoples standards."
I call myself a crafter or quilter. I quilt, I crochet, I cross stitch, I garden, I sew for my grandkids and others grands. I am better at some things than others. (Love to piece-not as talented with the quilting.) I don't listen to the quilt police, although I am my own worst critic.
So, define your talent and enjoyment in the art you create however you please, and not by other peoples standards.
