Quilt Show Find

My sister-in-law and I attended the quilt show in Des Moines, IA. I got the best lighted magnifying glass on a stand. It is surrounded by LED lights and has NO distortion. It can be on a floor stand, can convert to a table stand or a clip on. It can also be run from batteries instead of being plugged in. I used it for some unstitching I needed to do and it was great! It's called THE DUBLIN by Craftlite http://www.craftlite.net

My sister could have used that today...LOL...she was trying to hem some black pants and no matter what kind of light I had, she was having trouble seeing, even with her reading glasses. And she's just in her mid 40s!! I knew I couldn't see to hem them.

I did pick up 2 Ott Lites at Tuesday Morning that can clip on or be mounted with screws or adhesive. Nice strip of bright LED lights...for $14.99 each.
