    I always sew without shoes. My fartherweight foot controller has a button that is just right for my big toe to depress.

It is so automatic to me that I have never thought about it before. She went on and on about it and told all of my other SIL. I can't sew with my shoes on. I can do anything I want in my own home, but I am curious to see if anyone else sews barefoot.
    Never sewn any other way....we don't wear shoes in our house, or on the carpet, all guests and clients always take their shoes off at the door also.

    Can't go barefoot for too long due to a bone spur so I wear crocs flipflops but always kick my right one off to sew. Can't sew with shoes on.

    barefeet of course,
    took a class and when the teacher bent down to pick something up, she glanced up at me "caught you" LOL
    another shop where I have taken classes, (in the evening when shop is closed) I walk around, one shoe on, one shoe off... LOL
