Well, what my best friend does is she finds a floral design she likes by searching for ‘flower designs’ or ‘whatever designs’ on Google. Then she prints them off and then she takes a very sharp pointed pencil and sticks a hole in the paper she has pinned onto the cloth she is going to embroider on and then she pokes the pencil through making lines of dots. . to follow with her stitching. I hope this helps. Oh, sometimes she uses color books to do this with.
Good luck.

They are the ones used with the 4×4 square with the boxes/lines with and without dots. I would like to make a coded message for my sister with the symbols so she can translate them. Preferably a free font that works for Mac OSX. I can’t draw them because I need to email it to her. Thanks!

Masonic symbols can be found on many masonic related sites. Do some work, and search for them. They can also be located on many embroidery sites.
