Singer Featherweight model 221
very compact little machine, but popular among quilters for piecing blocks.

Can you tell me which lighting you did use?

I never did get this one to come out they way I wanted. Two flashes, very low power and diffused with small softboxes pointed at both sides. Anything more forward facing lit up the backdrop too much.

I would try to put some white stuff standing close to you (I mean, not in the frame, but on which light can reflect on and on the machine), in order to generate specular highlights. Otherwise the surface of the machine is difficult to bring out.

I might go back and try this one again.
