Hi all 
I've been saving special DL and WDW shirts the kids have outgrown over the years (the nice embroidered kinds) and I have had the idea of sewing them into a quilt or throw blanket. Then I thought it would be nice to add the dates of all of our trips so far. So for that I would need an embroidery machine capable of embroidering with the Disney font.
So is it difficult to make lettering come out nice and straight with an inexpensive machine? I'm sure I could find plenty of other fun things to make with an embroidery machine. Or should I be looking into finding someone to embroider the dates on the fabric for me. What would that cost I wonder?
Can any of you with experience with embroidering give me your thoughts?
