While you are sewing, what else do you do?

I have my computer in the same room as my sewing, and I love to listen to music on the Pandora website at http://www.pandora.com/#/. It's free!
You choose the artists you want to listen to, and the site plays that music, as well as music from other artists whose genre is similar. If you don't like one of their selections you just click the thumb down picture. If you want more of the same thing, you click the thumbs up and they will play it more often. You can play just one of your artists, but I like to play a mix of all of mine. It's continual music with just a 15 second ad every 20 minutes or so. (If you want you can get a paid membership and skip the ads.)You may also bookmark your favorites and download them if you are a paying member. :thumbup:

I've never tried to watch a movie AND sew. I usually just enjoy the quiet (if I have it) otherwise I listen to music. I'll let you know later how it goes!
Can you watch TV or a movie while sewing?

When I converted a bedroom into my sewing room one of the first things I got was a TV with a cable DVR. Record programs my husband isn't necessarily interested in watching with me and I watch (listen??) to them when I sew. He has kind of taken over the living room DVR - even questions when I put something on it. Old movies, TNT and TBS summer series (Leverage, Burn Notice, In Plain Sight, etc) and my History Channel specials are always on when I'm in my room.
