Some very clever quilter on this group helped me with building my
doggy door by suggesting I use a cheap clear plastic auto floor mat
for the swinging door part. It worked wonderfully- wish I could
remember who thought of that so I could thank her again! Well, the
two mats intended for the back seat floor have been sitting in my
laundry room for months, but I'm too cheap to throw them away. Then I
got an idea- I'll try one under my sewing machine pedal. Well, in one
hour of sewing the pedal hasn't moved- yay! I laid the mat with the
nubby side (intended to hold the mat in place on the car's carpet)
facing up. The nubbies hold the pedal still. The plastic/smooth side
of the mat is staying put on the carpet as well. Cool- problem solved
and no extra money spent!

I have my pedal on a concrete block with elastic bands to keep it in position.
This works fine until one of my affectionate pets decides to sleep on the pedal
while I am working. ;^)
