Hand Embroidery Pattern Needed!?
Are there any free sites on the internet where I can find the word "Joy" in a pretty font to hand embroider?
I think this image would be a good project:

FYI: you will have to register but if you are ever looking for images, they have TONS!
go to a fabric type hobby store like joann’s fabrics
or hancock fabrics or walmat, or a hobby craft store

Go into your programming to FONTS and find one you really like. Use your word processing program to set it up like you want it. Print it out, I do it in reverse for ease of transfering and use a transfer pencil.
Or you can print it very heavy and put the fabric on top against a light source like a window, and trace it onto your fabric.
Lots of really cool fonts in the computer!!

I did not find any on the internet with that description, but here is another option. Go to your local library and check out the 2001 Cross Stitch Designs: The Essential Reference Book from Better Homes & Gardens. If your library does not have it, see if it can be acquired from one in the network.
You can also find it used on amazon and half price for about $10.
It has great designs, quite a few Christmas ones, including the word Joy. These are smaller designs that can be used for bookmarks, ornaments and the like or incorporated into larger designs like their 12 days of Christmas charts.
I borrowed this from the library and ended up with my own copy from a discount book store since it was such a good reference. That and the librarian in my local small town started to frown at me.

Go to DMC.com for a pattern.
They should have that pattern in several variations.
