You can get clip-on magnifier's from Harbor Freight for under $5. It is crazy to find the same product douples or triples in price because you put the word sewing or quilting on it. While you're there, check out the telescoping magnetic tool pick-up thing (for pins, scissors, etc. So cool), magnetic parts dishes (for pins), cutting blades for rotory cutter. I love a good buy.
