I can't sew with anything heavier than a sock on my pedal foot. Used to do medical transcription. Again, had to take my shoe off to use the foot pedal.

I only wear shoes when I absolutly have to. And even then I go with a minimal foot covering . I make my own shoes out of leather pieces to just wear around where I have to wear shoes in the warm weather.

So how many others out there sew without the shoe?

Well, I always sew without my shoes, but then I am an Arkie, lol....barefoot just feels better and natural to me.

Don't sew barefoot but with socks on. In the house I always have slippers on but can't get the feel for the foot with them on. I even bought a particular pair of slippers, just for sewing, but usually end up sewing in my socks.
