What do you use to keep your foot pedal from moving around?

I found a home made foot pedal mat in a local quilt shop. It's a piece of plywood about 10 inches square. It has shelf liner glued to the top and bottom. It works great. To keep the foot pedal in place while I'm sewing. It would be easy to make.

I have tried many things also, Now I put the cord of the foot petal under a leg of my sewing cabinet and it stays where I can reach it ALL of the time.

I use the rubberized shelf covering (actually looks like a rubber bubbled netting). 2.99 a roll at Walmart and I use it under my featherweight and my 301s just to keep them from wanting to escape my sewing :-). I cut a piece about an inch bigger all the way around and it works perfectly. Currently I have my featherweight on the kitchen counter (making a 156 blocks and so I work awhile and rest awhile) and there is a piece of this keeping the pedal nice and stable on the laminate wood flooring in the kitchen. Hope this helps.
