    God I've got a severe back injury I haven't worn heels in about 3 years. If I'm in my house sewing I do it in my bare feet, if I'm at class at the LQS I wear my socks to sew. I see some ladies at the studio that do it in their bare feet but I'd be cautious as there might be pins on the floor.

    I like the fact that I can feel the pedal under my foot. When we do long road trips and its my turn to drive I will drive without my right shoe on. I find I'm more alert and attentive to the gas pedal that way.

    Haven't worn anything over two inch heals usually try to go flats. Broke my ankle at thirty. Gave a quick try to some 4" ers but once I slid them on and tried to stand pain!! So never again. Sew barefoot.

    I sew either bare-footed or in socks! Heels don't even exist in my house!

    Heels, I almost forgot they made those. Can't go barefoot so slippers, oxfords, or sandals!

    The last time I wore heels was when my son got married - 7 years ago.

    Heels when sewing ?? who wears heels anytime if they can avoid it ? I don't go looking for a turned ankle, broken arm, etc. which may be the result if I wore them now.

    Ha ha! Yeah, I always put on my 50's housedress, do my hair & makeup, and put on my heels before I sew!
