Newsprint could work for the corners. It is lighter than freezer paper. Try it to see how you like it.

I used heavy duty velcro (in white) and stuck a 3 inch long piece on the bottom of my foot petal and attached the mate to it on the tile floor under my machine. No more movement of the foot petal. -
What is the betting, that by the time you want to use that template, it will have hidden itself so well, that you will have to make a new one. :wink:Originally posted by lorraComment

Cathy I saw a pot holder just like that but it was orange. I wasn't sure it would work because of all the waffle holes in it so I decided to see what else I could find before going back for it. Luckily I found the perfect bath mat. I am glad it worked for you.

While I don't have hard wood flooring, I do have a plastic mat to allow my chair to move. After a few unsuccessful attempts with the wrong kind of shelf liner, I resorted to strong self adhesive hook and loop (Velcro) sticking the hook side on the mat and the loop side on the bottom of the pedal. This works great. I would warn, be sure of where you want to place it. I had to add more of the hook to the mat in order to get the best placement. Also be careful when pulling the pedal off the hook side (should you want to take your machine to class), use both hands and carefully lift off as it could separate part of the coil cover (I have a Bernina model that coils the excess cord on the bottom).Comment

Yes! WALL STRETCHERS! :lol: And more cheap white flannel King sheets, for design walls! Ahhhh, another Tuesday Morning store trip in the near future! Gotta get sorted out and packed to take my sewing machine to my P-I-L's house for Christmas. They let me set up a table in the living room, near the tree, and I keep it humming with sewing/quilting/embroidery the whole week. I take family requests to embroider stuff on their clothes while I'm at it. My youngest nephew loves to have his name on his jerseys and sweats. What do you all do over the Holidays? (Oh, I'll be XC skiing and ice skating too, but since they aren't into TV watching, I can be social while I'm sewing :wink: )Originally posted by MargoComment

My sewing area is carpeted, so I just put a strip of self-stick velcro (the grabby strip) on the top and bottom of my pedal and it works like magic! I can even reposition it for my granddaughter's shorter legs. I've purchased those plastic mats that hold the pedal and are supposed to stay put on carpet, but they don't work as well as the velcro.Comment

Margo, just watched the EPP link you provided, I thought that the lady doing the stitching looked awfully cack-handed doing it the way she did, that would be uncomfortable for me for any length of time.Originally posted by Margo
