Sewing machine a tradition

Awais Yaqub

It is a tradition to give a sewing machine to daughters at time of their marriage no matter what is financial position of her husband. This could be a time pass in new home or business I know many people who lost their father in very little age and their mother brought them up by sewing cloths of women of neighborhood it is very appropriate business for a women in Pakistan. The picture of above machine is my Mother’s gift of marriage about 20 years old

PS for b&w and put a cloth in sewing process for sense of motion

Nice
They sure don't make them like that anymore here in the US. For awhile I had my grandmother's old Singer sewing machine, but it wasn't as fancy as yours pictured.

I thought it might be a Singer. The older ones are just beautiful and you captured the beauty. I agree with Daniel the fabric looks like smoke, super nice

Howdy Awais,

Very nicely done, I really like the details and tones, just a tad too dark for me I feel some of the finer details might be getting lost but that is just my take on it, and I think best of all I like the story that ties it all together.

Thanks for sharing!
