I have a ceramic tile floor in my basement sewing room. I have tried everything, the rubberized shelf stuff, scraps of wood stolen from my husbands workshop, a throw rug, and a car mat. Strips of velcro worked for awhile, but I didn't stick it to the floor. I've decided to turn the problem over to my husband and have him make a play pen for the peddle. Hey, it works for wayward babies, it MAY work for my wayward pedal.
