    Most of the time I sew with my right shoe off. I don't feel like I can control the petal with my shoes on. I never wear shoes in the house, just my comfy houseshoes. If it weren't for being diabetic, I would never wear shoes.

    :lol: I always take off the shoe that is pushing on the foot control. It doesn't matter if I am at home, in a store or in a class.

    LOL I have always sewn without my shoe on. Drove my Home Ec teachers crazy! And looks funny in a quilting class walking around with one shoe on & one shoe off. I don't care - it is the sewing that matters. :)

    Before I sit down at my quilting hoop I take off my shoes- it is much more comfortable.

    I found myself walking around my LQS in my socks a few weeks ago after kicking off my boots during class. Thought twice the next three weeks about what shoes I put on to make it easier to slip in and out of them during the rest of class.

    Cheers, K

    Bare foot,here. If it's really reeeeally cold, I'll wear a thin sock on my right foot, and a slipper on the other.

    Shoes, those are for city girls. lol No, I can't either, nice to no I'm not the only one. My dh fusses at me though because I'm an insulin dependent diabetic. But I keep telling him "I can't"
