Default “It’s not real quilting”

Hello, all.

My DH mentioned to his older brother recently that I started making quilts. BIL asked him if I made them by hand and he said no, that I use a sewing machine. Then BIL said, “If she uses a machine then she’s not really making quilts. That’s not real quilting”. Normally I’d laugh this off but these days I’m more sensitive and emotional and this really irked my nerves. Said BIL is now visiting this weekend and I really don’t want to have to punch him in the throat about my quilting (laughing but serious). Do you ever deal with people who are jerks about your crafts and hobbies? If so, how?
