I'm barefoot or just socks to sew, too. I think I have better control over the foot control that way. I don't wear shoes in teh house anyway. Much more comfortable.

In my socks and I always turn the foot pedal around, I find it easier to avoid cramps if I apply pressure with my heel rather than my toes.

Barefoot in warm weather, socks in cold weather!

Phew, glad to know I'm not the only one that runs around the house barefoot. We live in Las Vegas and don't have but about 2 months of cold weather so I'm barefoot almost all the time. We have tile floors and they are so nice and cool in the hot, hot summer. I really do own shoes...lol.

If I am in the house, I am barefoot. I wish I could be barefoot at work.

I wear Ugg Boots in Winter, I suffer from the cold and wear them in the house and while sewing, but in Summer I am always barefoot, I can feel the pedal better, especially on the old Singer machines.

I always sew without shoes. Sometimes socks or ballerina house slippers but never shoes even at classes. Teresa

I sew with a soft sole slipper on. I'm covered if I have to get up and use the rotary.

I'm another one that kicks the shoes off the minute I get in the door. I absolutely HATE shoes! I sew barefoot when its warm and socks in the winter.
