Hey all... since there's such a wealth of info on this site...
Has anyone ever tried those velcro on, mini LED lights that stick onto the side of your machine, have a flexible 12" or so 'neck' and a LED light on the end? Someone recommended them to me, so I bought two.
I tried them, but they kept getting hung up on fabrics, or in the way of my hands as I worked, or they awkwardly hung down so as to block my view.
What am I doing wrong? Do you attach them to the side or the back of the machine? Or what?

I have the bendable light and I love it. I'm half blind. This light is great. It has little hooks to keep the cord out of the way. I haven't had any problem keep any part of it out of my way.
This is the one I have.

I have the bendable light and it works great for me. I have it on the side of my machine(s) and you can direct the light where it is needed. You can purchase more of the stitck on holders and place them all you sewing machines....the light itself will slip into the holder.
