I multi task all the time at work but find I work and sew pretty much with no background noise at all. No music, no audio books. Sometimes the family is with me and we watch TV but mostly I say, "What happened? What did she just say?"
I can't seem to do both with any amount of comprehension.

I rarely stay in my quilting room for more than 30 minutes at a time. Maybe because I don't drink or smoke in there, but perhaps LOUD music would help. I must block out the drone of the TV my husband is watching in the adjacent room.
