How to keep your foot pedal from walking away...
#32
I use the two sided stickey velcro tape one on my peddle and the other on the floor. That way they van't move just make sure to put the stickey side on the peddle first that way when you stick it to the flore they will both line up . It workd for me. I also used the good heavy velcro.

The lady with the heels is probably also in full make up and wearing her pearl necklace :lol:
I do have the second item pictured, and it does slip on lino floors. I am going to see if I can find one of those old mouse pads lying around, for free, before getting a bathroom mat. I also have that stuff you put under things to keep them from slipping, but I think it will just get wadded up.
I also put the pedal backwards when I sew. I feel like I have more control and less strain on my leg.

I use the circular rubber jar openers, those for us with arthritis. I have one under each of my foot pedals on my hardwood floor in my sewing room. They don't go anywhere I don't want them to.
