I didn't vote on this challenge, but I like this shot alot. I love the way the thread is out of focus and the focus on the needle area of the machine is really good! Great job! Looking forward to seeing more of your photography in the near future.
I am so impressed -- and so jealous -- that you could get such a great photograph out of a sewing machine!! No suggestions for improvement here -- just admiration.
Really nice potential... I think though,, that I would like to see it again, cropped closer, in square format, leaving out some of the white area of the sewing arm.

You must have thought and thought before you put the t hreads in the background. It makes an interesting composition, but I wonder if a really plain background would have set off that intricate metal design well also.
