Sue at the Tortoise Loft came across a pair of magnifiers really cheap and decided to try them. And she likes them a lot! She doesn't think they'll work for everyone and explains why on her blog, but it's certainly useful to see what she thinks about using them for stitching.

Note that the link Sue provides is to a UK company's website. I couldn't find them available in the USA.

Need a Little Vision Boost?
Labels:

stitching glasses
If your eyes need a little power boost to see better, you might want to try the drug store magnifiers. They come in various magnification powers but style is lacking. Fortunately, Pocket Full of Stitches has amazing styles available for the fashionable far-sighted person.

Time to Get My Eyes Checked

Even if it wasn't time to have my eyes checked, I'd be tempted to make an appointment, just to see if they carry glasses like these.
