What should I do? Parents do not approve of my hobby

I'm 29 years old, I'm not married, which is very frustrating for my parents, and me, to be honest, too. I live with my parents not because I can not buy my home (I'm earning well), but because I'm used to being with them always, they are also afraid that I will move from them. I'm the only child in the family. I have my apartment, which I rent, I just put my money into it.

Girlfriends are all married, have children, so they have no time to communicate with me, but probably, and not interesting, so except for work, I have no interests, only reading and social networks. I am able and I love to knit, but I already tied everything I could, and recently the employee taught me how to embroider, I really liked it. Now the evenings no longer seem so boring, there is a favorite pastime. While embroidering only a tablecloth, I'm going to embroider napkins, it's very beautiful. Not so long as an employee, she embroidered the icon and already gave it to the temple.

But to me all the pleasure from my hobby is spoiled by parents who decided that I would never marry so, if I stay at home for embroidery. Papa says that this was done only in the old days, but now nobody needs it, everything can be bought. They do not understand that I am doing this for the soul, for my pleasure. I have not embroidered before, communicated with classmates, then with classmates, now colleagues at work - this is a large half of men, and that it helped me to get married? In addition, I went to English language courses, I visit the pool, I have the most versatile interests, but my parents somehow fixed on my embroidery.

I met right after graduating from university with a boy about two years. He did not want to marry, he offered to live together, and there he said he would be seen, but his parents were categorically against it and I listened to them. Now they do not remember this, maybe they think that I forgot, but I often think that I refused this offer in vain, because I did not lose anything, and could already have a family. How to know? But I do not allow myself to accuse them of this, to say that it was he who prevented me from organizing my personal life. In return, I want very little - so that no one interferes with my life as I want.
