    When I'm longarming (mid-arming, I guess to be exactly correct!) I light off my Enya album and go to town!

    Listening to music for me also relaxes me. I like to listen to r&b alot but when I am sewing I listen to old school r&b or jazz.

    I have heard that when you quilt Free-hand, music helps you stay steady and smooth. It depends on my mood; I listen to the Radio, T.V., iTunes and sometimes....quiet.

    My sewing room that looks like it will be done within a year is also where I keep my records form my high school years, the 70's. You know, records, those vinal things with pretty artwork on cardboard sleeves.
    There's a record/cd/ player/radio in there and to be honest sometimes I like to sew listening to John Denver or Bob Seger.

    Classical or opera. Very relaxing and calming.

    I've also beein lsitening to audio books--from audible.com and also from our library system, which now has audio books for download, so I can combine two of my favorite things, sewing and 'reading'. :)

    When I get the chance to be home alone...I load up the CD disc changer...turn up the volume...and enjoy my favorite group...THE MONKEES, of course!!! Sometimes I even put in one of the live DVD's and run that thru the stereo.

    If I'm not home alone, guess what? I tell them IF they don't like the music...there's the door!

    I turn up Pandora on my computer and do a random mix of all of my favorite channels that I have set up. My musical taste is very eclectic, anything from Classical to Broadway tunes, Jazz, Classic Rock, Motown, R&B, Folk, Blue Grass, Country, Pop...I love it all!

    I just finished listening to Prayers For Sale. It's a book on tape, also. It's really the story of quilters but I didn't know it until after I started listening to it. I really enjoyed it.
