Your next sewing-room upgrade starts with better light.
Light your stitches. Brighten your room. Keep your sewing table clear. The Daylight Alto U35807 LED Floor Lamp brings adjustable task lighting and ambient room lighting together in one sleek silver floor lamp—for $149.99 at ThreadWorks.
When your next project calls for careful piecing, hand stitching, or an evening with your embroidery hoop, put lighting to work where you need it. The Alto directs light down toward your work surface and diffuses light upward into the room. Use either light on its own or switch on both, with independent brightness adjustment and warm-to-daylight color settings that adapt to the way you sew, craft, and unwind.
-
Two lighting functions in one: Downward task light for your project and upward ambient light for your room.
-
5,360-lumen LED output: Generous illumination for your creative space.
-
Independently adjustable brightness: Balance each light source to suit the task and the room.
-
2,700K–6,500K color settings: Move from a warm evening glow to crisp daylight illumination.
-
No tabletop footprint: Leave more space for fabric, rulers, patterns, and your sewing machine.
-
Nine-hour automatic shutoff: A practical finishing touch for busy makers.
Two kinds of light. One thoughtful design.
The Alto’s slim shade sends light in two directions. Downward task lighting illuminates a desk or work surface, while upward ambient lighting diffuses light into the surrounding room. Instead of relying on a single overhead fixture, you can add light where you work and bring a more inviting glow to the space around you.
-
Task light on its own: Direct illumination toward the project or work surface below.
-
Ambient light on its own: Add indirect room lighting for a softer atmosphere.
-
Both lights together: Combine work-surface illumination with a brighter surrounding space.
Adjust each light to suit your project
The two light sources have independently adjustable brightness, so you can balance the light on your work with the light in the room. Turn up the task lighting when you want more illumination for detailed work, or lower the intensity for a quieter evening of reading or handwork. Multiple intensity settings give you flexibility as your projects and the natural light in your room change throughout the day.
Warm light to daylight: 2,700K–6,500K
Brightness is only part of the picture. The Alto also lets you adjust the color temperature from warm 2,700K to daylight 6,500K. Choose a warmer setting for a cozy atmosphere, or a cooler daylight setting when you prefer a crisp look for sewing, crafting, and working with fabric and thread.
That versatility makes the Alto especially useful in spaces that serve more than one purpose: a sewing room that doubles as an office, a craft corner in a living room, or a favorite chair used for both stitching and reading.
More room for the things you love making
Because the Alto stands on the floor, it leaves your tabletop available for fabric, rulers, patterns, and your machine. Its tall profile and slim lamp head bring lighting into your workspace, while the understated silver finish fits naturally into a sewing studio, home office, or living area.
-
Sewing and quilting: Add adjustable lighting beside your sewing station for piecing, pattern reading, and project preparation.
-
Hand sewing and needlework: Create a well-lit spot for embroidery, cross stitch, binding, and other detailed handwork.
-
Knitting and crochet: Set up lighting beside your favorite project chair.
-
Reading and desk work: Switch easily from creative projects to everyday tasks.
Powerful LED illumination with automatic shutoff
With a listed output of 5,360 lumens and 72W power consumption, the Alto brings substantial LED illumination to your space. A built-in nine-hour automatic shutoff turns the lamp off if it has been left on—one less thing to remember after a full day of making.

Daylight Alto floor lamp: your questions answered
Can I use it for sewing, quilting, and cross stitch?
The Alto provides adjustable task lighting for a work surface, making it a useful addition beside a sewing table or a chair used for hand quilting, embroidery, cross stitch, knitting, or crochet. Position the lamp so the downward light reaches your project, then choose the brightness and color setting you prefer.
Can the room light stay on while the task light is off?
Yes. The upward ambient light and downward task light can operate separately or together. You can also adjust their brightness independently, giving you control over the balance between project lighting and room lighting.
Is the light always cool white?
No. The color temperature adjusts from warm 2,700K to daylight 6,500K, so the Alto can provide a warmer atmosphere as well as cooler light for your workspace.
Does it need space on my sewing table?
No. This is a freestanding floor lamp. Allow room beside your station for its listed dimensions of 19.7 inches wide, 14.2 inches deep, and 79.9 inches tall.
How long before the automatic shutoff activates?
The lamp turns off automatically after nine hours to help prevent it from being left on unnecessarily.

Give your sewing corner, craft room, or favorite stitching chair lighting that works throughout the day. Add the Daylight Alto U35807 to your setup for $149.99 and enjoy focused project light and ambient room light from one thoughtfully designed lamp.
