Evelyn,
You're not alone with this issue. 3 years ago I had to have a light closer to me to hand quilt in my living room and purchased the gray Ott Light floor lamp and loved it so much that a year later I bought a 2nd one and have it by my sewing machine and it really does make a difference. Both of my lamps were purchased on sale at my local JoAnn's. Attached is a recent photo of my clean sewing room and you can see the style of ott light at my sewing desk. They have many choices and styles. I have this same style behind my love seat in the living and love it for quilting, knitting and reading. Watch for sales. You can order them online if you aren't near a JoAnn's. You definitely want a good lamp to work with and these are designed for crafting, sewing, etc. The neck is repostitionable which is really nice. This morning I was putting a band on the neck of a sweatshirt and need more light so just bent it down closer to my work and it made all the difference.
