Well, it took me a week, but I finally visited one of the big box hardware stores and after having a slightly testy conversation with an older sales guy ("Is this inside or out? Is this a dining room?" This after I said I wanted a work light to illuminate a wall six feet wide by about eight feet tall from a distance of between 10 and 12 feet), he suggested this small light. "The other ones will work, but they will also generate an awful lot of heat."
Yeah.
Sometimes the solution is a lot easier than you think.

Wow! What a difference. Well worth $20 and putting up with a grumpy sales guy!

Well worth having some quiet words with a salesman, and coming home with the answer.
What a great solution! I've been complaining about the lighting here for y ears, and making tiny fixes, but it looks like that might do the trick!
I think the guy sold you the right light. Maybe he needed the right amount of info to get the right light. Does it have a temperature rating? The fabrics look great, so let's give him the benefit of doubt.
Wow, that is a great tip! We're so dark and gloomy here in the PNW in the winter. I may have to get one of those lights.
What a huge difference it made for your photos! Thanks for sharing!
By the way, your quilt is great! Once again, you're showing your mastery of color.
Awesome - thank you! You won't be sorry!!
I need one, too. Thanks for the information.
Getting one of these right away!! Thanks!
Wow! What a difference the $20 light makes. I can see the colors better. They seem to shine thru. Great friend you got to make a simple novel suggestion. Here is to a can of V8!
Thank you so much. Just what I need for my design wall.
You are right!
Thanks for sharing the tip about the portable LED light.
Your quilt blocks are gorgeous.
I think I could use one or two of these! Thank you for the info and before and after photo too!
