Unfortunately not
The only place the daisies were still intact was on the rear inspection plate. It was a bit of a tough call, but I've decided to repaint and will try and repaint the daisies by hand as practice. I think it's more important that someone loves this machine again. I'll do my bit and then I think I'll try and use it as bait to tempt one of my young nieces into sewing

They worked! Found my jewellery pliers on the way out the door to the hardware. Was great because I could take the pieces separately to get what I needed
