Definitely classical (on my iPod/earphones, 'cause hubby isn't into classical; he says it makes him sleepy; I say, what doesn't?). Classical music is soothing and keeps my heart beating at a normal pace.

I have an iPOD Nano, mostly older country on it, like George Strait, Alan Jackson, early Garth Brooks, but keep adding to it. Have some love songs by Rod Stewart & a collection of others too. Found "Key Largo" at the iTunes store, so have it on there now, one of our favorite songs!

Southern Gospel music from the satellite is what is always on when I am working on anything in the sewing room/office.

darlin121 10-30-2010 01:58 PM

listen to audiobooks instead of music. That way I get my reading done at the same time as my quilting!

gloing 10-30-2010 01:59 PM

I watch tv usually, occasionally listen to music. C & W, show tunes, stuff I can sing along with! Good thing I am in my own space!!! My 15 y/o sewing student spends Tuesday afternoon with me, and I let her choose the tunes. Last week she picked 60's rock and roll. I was happy!!!! She was amazed, I knew all the words!!! LOL!!

quiltnchik 10-30-2010 02:03 PM

I put the 70s station on DirecTV and quilt away! Love it! :)

Usually have TV on instead of music. Usually on USA Network, HGTV, or some movie that I've seen numerous times because I am usually just listening until it gets to a really good part then I look up and watch a little and go back to what I was doing.

You're right - for that price I will probably have to pick that one up. I have all of their other CD's so I know most of those songs, but they are all good and it goes for a good cause. Thanks!

maryb119 10-30-2010 07:02 PM
