greetings all,

i was cleaning up my sewing room today and i was wearing slippers.

then i started sewing, finishing up the projects, and something felt wrong.

turns out i was sewing with my slippers on and normally i just wear socks when sewing.

i like how my toes can feel the pedal - for some reason i think i have more control (but i'm sure i don't)


so my silly poll is...............



what do you wear on your feet when sewing? and why do you prefer it?

I have to wear shoes when sewing; otherwise, I'm sure I'd step on a pin or needle, or stub my toe while maneuvering around my crowded and messy room......

I wear shoes or slippers. I am flat-footed, and I have to something on my feet just about all the time or I have terrible pain. :(

In the winter I definitely wear slippers. My feet are always so cold!!
In the warmer weather, usually just my bare feet.

barefooted or socks, otherwise I don't think I could control the pedal as well.
