Title: Font Help Please
Post by: Judy Hunter on February 29, 2012, 07:48:40 pm

I am looking for an Old English type font without all the extra lines and sqiggles so I can cut out names or words with it.  Appreciate any help  ???

Judy, I went to Hobby Lobby and got the Old English stencil sets in the size I needed and use them to make my name plates and word art patterns of course it's not done on the computer but still works good. They aren't that high and made of plastic so will last.

Judy, do you have the book "Scroll Saw Fretwork Patterns" by Spielman & Reidle?  There are a couple of fonts in there that are sort of old english style. 

Also, you can check here:

Hope this helps! :)

I did not find exactly what I was looking for.  Keefie sent me a couple, one I had and one I might be able to make work. I am still hoping to find a fancy Old English  :D
