Foot pedal stabilizer?

Posted by on December 27, 2008, 2:14 am

I've gotten an online coupon for free shipping from 'Sewing With
Nancy' and I'm looking at either Neez-ez or Pedal Stay II for my foot
pedal for my machine. Does anyone have either of these and which
would you recommend?? I'm tired of chasing my pedal across my floor
and have tried a large piece of cork which didn't work. I've also
tried a piece of shelf liner and that didn't solve the problem either.

Input is most welcome!

I once had a customer that put Velcro on the bottom, used on a carpet seemed
to work pretty well.

I use an older computer mouse pad. New ones sell for $1 at Big Lots.

Does your sewing area have carpet or hard surface? I've found that
pedals 'stay' much better on carpet. My sewing room is in the
basement on a tile floor, and between chasing the pedals around and
cold feet I was most unhappy. We went to the local carpet store and
got a couple of samples of flat carpet (discontinued styles, they gave
them to us), and solved both problems at once. I didn't even need
velcro!

An intermediate solution was the honeycomb-style shelf liner, which
worked fairly well but tended to curl up at the edges.
