Oh heavens...when I first glanced at your post, I thought you said HORSE shoes!! :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

The shoes come off the minute I am in the door! When it's warm barefoot, when it is cold either foot soxs or slippers (and they usually wind up off :wink: )

Just went to a lecture by Sue Nickels and she says barefoot is her favorite way to sew, she can control the speed better.

what was the lecture about with Sue Nickels?

I wear those little balerina slippers in the summer and socks in the winter w/ my Fuzzy slippers. Cold feet???

Craftybear - It was about machine quilting and raw edge applique. She has 2 books out on those subjects too, but this lecture truly covered the basics and she provided us with a hand out with notes of the points she touched on. I really enjoyed it.

I find that my pedal slips if I wear shoes. I much prefer being barefoot. Even in the winter. I have REALLY tough feet... I end up occasionally having to sleep in special socks that help heal my cracked heels that develop from spending so much time barefoot. Even in my classroom at school, I take off my shoes the minute my students leave my classroom during my planning period. I wear clogs in the winter so I can slip off my shoes the minute I get inside the house.

My dh is the ONLY one who is allowed to wear shoes in the house. My kids are just like me... barefoot all the time. My dh doesn't go barefoot more than a few minutes a day, unless he is sleeping at night.

No, always with shoes on. I may try barefoot today cause I only came downstairs with my Uggs and the stairs are not my friend right now.

I always were shoes. My feet hurt if I don't. I have indoor shoes to keep things clean. In the winter I wear Nike clogs. In the summer Nike flip flops.

I sew barefoot. I'm like you, the minute I get home the shoes come off. I have never liked wearing shoes, maybe because I have a terrible time finding comfortable shoes. I have short little wide feet with very high arches.
In my teens it was cool to go everywhere barefoot which is probably why restaurants now say "No shoes, no service" :lol: :lol: :lol:

I've tried to sew with shoes on, but I can't do it. No control. I guess sewing barefoot is just habit now.
