I got one of those little bendable lights that stick on your machine. I haven't tried it yet but my Daughter has one and she says that it is the greatest. She says you can turn off all the lights and that is bright enough to sew by.
It's called the Bendable Bright Light. They run $49.00 but I got one at a quilt show for $39.00 which helps.
You can check them out at www.bendablebrightlight.com
I was going to order a extra base so I could switch to different machines but Husband ordered me the whole thing. He is a sweet guy that I have been with for 47 years, I guess he is a kkeeper. kjym Kathy
