How do you corral a wandering foot pedal?

I use the waffly stuff and it works for me.

This method makes me lose control of the single stitch function that I have with the FC. Otherwise, if not needed, would work fine.

I use one of those rubber mesh things like you line kitchen cupboards with and it works pretty well. I have to adjust the foot position now and then but it is better than not having anything at all.

I solved my problem with my foot pedal on hardwood flooring. I took 4 command strips, tacked two together on each end of my foot pedal and then by removing the last paper to expose the tacky part I laid it on the floor where I want the pedal to stay. Works great. Wow, what will I do without constantly chasing that foot pedal around?

Double back tape...I'm just a tape girl...use it for everything...double back, duct, masking, painters, you name it..I use it.. Because of bad ankles I turned my pedal backwards and put a 2x4 to rest my foot on...gives me greater control on speed too. Think maybe aging makes us look for more ways to adapt to our ever changing bodies...
