I could never ever get tired of quilting. I did not do it for over 2 years because of a personal family tragedy, and have just in the past 6 months gotten back in to it. You should never let anyone discourage you from doing something you love to do. Personally I would rather make quilts than anything else, up to, and including eating, which on occasion I forget about when DH is gone. I would agree about the pre-cuts if you have color blindness. Maybe you just need to work on something different, than the one you have been struggling with for 6 yrs. Do it because you love it, you don't need any other reason.
