The Everyday Matters challenge last week was to 'draw a collection'. I don't think of myself as a collector but looking around I see that I collect quite a lot of things! I have around 20 different presser feet as they make some fancy sewing techniques very easy (as well as being very cheap compared to UK prices!)I can't believe I managed to draw this and post it on the blog on the same day! I wanted to get it drawn quickly before the shadows and the reflections changed. They look a little lost on the large white page so I will probably add a few more later. I used an HB pencil.

Wow, these are gorgeous. I'd never have thought of drawing presser feet, and they ARE complicated, aren't they?
Wow. This is very nice! Very fine work.
This is great! What a fantastic subject, also!
Beautiful drawing Felicity! I never would have thought of sewing machine feet for a collection.

Wonderful drawing!
This is such fantastic draughtsmanship.
It's so long since I did any seiwng that I didn't recognise what kind of objects they were and before reading your text, I thought they were some super hi-tech feet for a disabled athlete
