I listen to 5 or 6 books a week on my Ipod! However, I have to turn it off while designing...I need silence if I actually have to THINK!!

I listen to a mixture of oldies, Il Divo, Michael Buble from my iPod. My kids got me a Bose docking station for my birthday and the sound is wonderful. One of my daughters finds it amusing that I listen to Disney music while I pay bills.

I listen to several different things at different times, depending on my mood. I use Pandora all of the time with my computer and speakers and love the variety. I also can tune the TV into any of the digital themed stations for music, or plug myself into my Zune for music or a good book. When I am FMQ, my favorite is to listen to a book. It helps me relax.

I always have music playing while I sew...and a lot of the time when not sewing too...I love about any kind of music...love Pandora and being able to type in a song or artist and getting to listen to that style of music...and as I love listening to piano music...I love listening to solopianoradio.com

Yes, Love all kinds of music but while sewing it's mostly Sonic from the TV.

Love to listen to the radio when I sew

I listen to all kinds of music and sometimes have the TV on. I like sports so if a good hockey game, football or any college sport I have that on.

Dee 02-27-2011 09:10 PM

I have my radio, tapes and cd's and I'm a happy camper. 50,60 music.

quilttiludrop 02-27-2011 09:23 PM

My DH subscribes to www.sky.fm radio on the internet. You can get just about any kind of music you like to listen to. It makes a nice atmosphere for working. Yes, I have a laptop in the sewing room for listening to music.

I like kid Rock.Mom says she don't but I look over and see her tapping her feet to the music. I think I'm converting her!

I have to have something playing on my ipod when I'm sewing. I listen to Mark Lipinski's Creative Mojo on Thurs (show is on Wed but I make myself wait for Thurs to download & enjoy, makes for a good work day). Sometimes I grab other sewing/crafty podcasts but he's my fav. I have a huge variety of music on it too & I just let it roll. I was FMQing a couple weeks ago and noticed I sewed much more smoothly to a particular Pink song so I made it play over and over until I was done, gosh I was sick of that song by the end :D
