I was forever chasing my pedal, and I finally run a couple strips of hot glue on the bottom of the pedal let it dry overnight and no more slip.

We must have sister feet, I am also queen of the toe grab pedal reposition.

Ihave a cheap computer chair mat under sewing table. works great for chair and placed pedal in rhe right spot traced out line and cut out. fits perfic never moves. makes easy clean ups with a broom. thread clipping and all. great on carpet and hard wood,even concrete. chair sets on mat can't move.Just move the mat to readjust pedal

I cover it up

Thanks for all the great ideas. I have carpet and get frustrated chasing my foot pedal. I'm going to try each of the ideas til I find the one that works best for me.:)

i adore this place. just sayin'

Thanks for the tip. I'm going to try the command strips.

it was nice to catch this thread. my traveling foot pedal is always moving. was reading each suggestion, and liked the waffly shelf lining, but i do already have extra waffly rug padding. and one has the extra folded back under the rug. well the rug is going to donate a piece of it for my foot pedal tomorrow morning.

How did you attach it to the foot pedal?

I use a jar opener, round rubber w/holes, purchased at the dollar store & it works fine. I carpet.

At home I have my foot pedal on top of a 2x12 board to get it a little higher (my cheap way of not getting a table to set my machine down in to and still be able to sew comfortably in the highest position my chair will let me.. I have a piece of vinyl of some sort on top of that and it doesn't slip..
When I sew at my guild's sewing days, it's a smooth vinyl floor. I cut a piece of that rubbery bumpy shelf liner paper - you know the cheap stuff that you can buy at the Dollar Tree? That keeps my pedal from moving anywhere at all. It's sweet :)

i now have a non traveling foot pedal. thanks to the foyer rug, it is missing a little extra padding that was doubled over. what a difference it makes. doesn't sit 100% still, but soo much better than it was.
