Now I have to decide on the decals to replace those that are gone. I'm going for a Celtic theme. My only concern is how to make the waterslide decals work on the curvy surface without morphing them out of shape.
Since the only cost I have so far is $40 (EBay) and $6 for the decal paper, this will be a thrifty little machine! Mounted on a $35 Singer treadle iron with a top made from oak planks we have salvaged from an old coffee table, I look forward to the day my wee Scotch heart can stitch away!! Gee, you can't tell I'm a little excited...
