Certainly. But that's what I was hoping to avoid -- it was so neatly
stitched, and I'm sure I won't do such a good job restitching. :-)
I wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something obvious.
I'll do some other projects in the meantime, and get to know the
machine, before cutting it. It occurs to me that I also want to be
absolutely sure it doesn't need tightening -- it'd be a shame to
re-attach it only to find I should have removed a bit first!
