No More Slipping Up

by Margaret Lote
To stop your foot pedal from slipping on the carpet or linoleum floor, try using an old bathroom mat or car mat (the type that has dimples underneath).  Cut the mat down to size (about 6″ x 9″) place on the floor, place your pedal atop that and Bingo! No more slips!

    I had some of the rubber shelf liner, that I cut down to size and glued to the foot. It stays put great, and goes with the foot to classes as it is glue on.

    My pedal has stick on velcro the hook end under it as I brought it second hand and it came on it.
    It grips the Carpet well.

    GREAT Idea!! I’m usually half under my sewing table before I realize why I can’t reach my sewing machine–and my right leg has grown 2 inches from unconciously trying to keep my foot on the pedal.

    I have got to try this, I have been chasing my peddle for years, at times more of by body would be below the table instead of in the chair. Thanks

    I use the rubberized shelf liner for almost everything. I started using it in my RV to prevent things from sliding around in the cabinets. Now I use it to keep my hoop from sliding when hooping tight items,and anything I am working on that tends to go skittering across my oak table that needs to stay put.
