Agatha

This is a (fully-functional) sewing machine belonging to a good friend. Her name is Agatha:

The second-to-last photo is actually a composite. The original had a bright white streak from my flash all across the Singer logo; this was distracting, and made the logo hard to read. So I grabbed a logo from a different image, and slapped it on top. I’m quite pleased with the results — I had to perspective-distort the logo, and then spent quite a while playing with the layer masks to get it to blend properly.
