Just couldn't do it, yesterday I bought slipper socks (with those little rubber things on the bottom) and am struggling to get used to them. What do you all wear on your feet when you are at your machine?

I'm also in DE! Always barefoot. Can't stand shoes.

Love going barefoot inside but my machine is in basement so floor is cold. Have to leave shoes on. My machine has a knee pedal not foot pedal.

the only time I put on shoes is when I am leaving the house. The first thing I do when I return is to take off my shoes.

Me too. I have some heavier socks that are good for this cold weather, but in the summer it's just barefoot!!

Wool socks in the winter and barefeet otherwise. We don't wear shoes in the house, so this is natural for me. I prefer the feeling of control, and I can curl my toes around the pedal when it wanders away!

A couple pairs of heavy socks in the winter 'cause I've got laminate flooring in the sewing room, but bare feet in the summer.

Sew barefoot all year here in TN. I do wear socks in winter in the rest of the house, we are the family that leaves our shoes in the garage all the time.
