I'd like to know what types of lighting you're using that provide the best lighting for this task and are budget friendly. I tried using my small Ott desk lamp that is usually next to my sewing machine, but it didn't provide near enough light.
Thanks in advance,
Quiltgranny,
You can try a florescent(sp) with 1 cool white and 1 warm white bulb in it and that should give you a pretty full spectrum of light without buying expensive Ott bulbs or halogen bulbs. If you still have too much glare try the florescent light with a white umbrella between you and the light. It will defuse the light like a photographer's in their studio.
Just an idea for ya.
