    I usually have the tv on, not so much to watch as to have background noise. Silence is always around here, we live in the middle of no where, no traffic sounds, no neighbors. The TV keeps me from being startled when and if the dog barks or dh talks while I am engrossed in my quilting project.

    Soon I will have satellite installed in my sewing room.

    Goes back to the days when I worked in my business.

    Baseball game on TV if the Mets are playing; news station if not.
    Or, listen to CDs my son has made for me of tracks I've picked.

    No, I can't do it. I don't watch TV, ever, but I am a Netflix user and I try to watch one movie per day. I can't sew while I'm watching but I do have the freedom to sew any time I want to day or night.
