I don’t have the patience for embroidery 

Now see I never used to mind embroidery....not that I was much good at it ....in fact I bought some from hobby craft before Xmas ...but it’s still waiting for me to start 

 I bought a couple of sets a decade ago. Didn’t even have the patience to sort out the threads.
