since our shoes come off at the door when we enter the house i've never sewn in shoes- we do not wear shoes inside- sometimes if my feet are cold i may have slippers on. but i've been sewing without shoes for 45+ years- we were never allowed to wear shoes in the house.

I've told this story before so forgive me if I'm boring anyone. A few years back, it was quite cold so I had on shoes. And I tried to sew. Just could not get the feel of the machine for diddly. Finally realized I had a shoe on my sewing foot. I've been seen tromping around with only a left shoe, more than once.

I alway sew shoeless, even at the LQS where I work. Gotta be "one" with the machine! Slip-ons are a must at work, so that I can slip them back on quickly when a customer walks through the door!

I am barefoot most of the time.

Only time I wear shoes is if we go to town or go outside.

I am usually shoeless.....sometimes I wear socks.

The foot that's on the pedal has the shoe off! How can you feel the small incremental movements of the pedal any other way?

I'm a either way kinda person, but prefer no shoes.

not here slippers

I'm shoeless also

I sew without shoes on too.
