    I have to be barefoot. Stepped on my first pin last week. It went deep.

    This 6 foot tall woman wears a 12. Medium sized midwest USA city, hard to come by.

    I buy men's sz 10 croft & barrow slides at Kohl's. These are my "house shoes". I have fuzzy slippers for coming out of the shower, but once the slippers soak up the dampness, the slides are on.

    Flylady says lace up shoes. This is my option, as I have to rest frequently during house blessings. rest, off. Workin', on.

    So. When I sew. sewing room has hardwood floors & my foot pedals slide. I slip off the slides, so I can hang on to the pedal. Also, when I reach for it, with tennies or my slides on, I kick it out of reach. With bare foot summer, or sock foot winter, I can feel it & it doesnt get kicked.

    prolly more than you asked for. Hee!!!

    My left foot is always either socked or shoed. My right foot which is my sewing pedal foot ALWAYS goes socked as I have neuropathy and can not feel the foot pedal through a shoe.

    Same here, pretty much, but if I have shoes or slippers on, in the winter, I sew with them on too. Pretty much, whatever I have on, or don't have on, lol...
    ditto...

    Left foot, houseshoe. Have to be barefoot on foot pedal. Even when I take a quilting class. Don't know why, just has to be.

    For Summer I have found the most comfortable pair of slip-on sandals! Otherwise I wear Reboks when quilting! :-)
