I'm finding that I need some kind of magnification now when I work on
anything smaller than 14 now, especially when I'm using white on beige like
I am now, or dark on dark colors.

I think I would like something that would attach to a frame, or q-snap.

Any recommendations would be appreciated.

Lucille

Daylight has a clip on magnifier - comes with a flexible neck, in 2 lengths.
The shorter one is retail $21, and the longer one $26. I bet you can find
it with a coupon at Joann's or the like. LMK directly if you can't - I can
get you one from the shop. They're nice and quite handy.

On my Baby-Z Frame for Kaye's I have a clamped on with screw magnifier -
it's great, but has to attach to the stand, it's kind of substantial. This
clip on Daylight one is very portable.

Take a look. I'm planning to get one of the clip-on daylight ones for me
someday. But, I've had my Kaye's for about 8 years, and it's great. I
don't use the light but expect I could, if I could find it.

I was looking at the Daylight clip on and I think that would work nicely for
me. I was nearly ready to order one when my internet connection went
kerflooie yesterday and it just came back so now I'll look again.

I'm going to look for a Joann's coupon and then order it from them but
thanks for the offer.

Thanks.

Lucille
