Tengwar font in Cross-Stitch?

I have a friend who is searching for the Elvish font (called Tengwar Quenya
or Tengwar Cursive) from J.R.R. Tolkien. She wants to translate the Ring
poem into Elvish and then stitch it. Any ideas where we might find this?
Thanks.

Goodgle "Tengwar". You'll get several hits. whether or not your friend will
find it as a free download is another story.

Sorry, guess I didn't make myself clear. She isn't looking for the font,
she has that. She's looking for a cross-stitch chart of the font. Any
ideas?

Thanks again,
Marcia

Yes, create whatever it is she wants to stitch and save it as a .jpg. Use a
design program, such as PC Stitch, to import that file and save it as a
pattern.

I had an idea along these lines (I'm sort of trying to do this with a
flame alphabet) the other day and no one really answered it, so I'll try
it he Has anyone done a saying/picture/etc. in a Word document and
*then* printed it out on graph paper? I haven't yet tried it, but I
don't see why it wouldn't work.... Opinions???

Create the grid in your Word document, then print it right out with the
picture. I do that in Pagemaker.

Of course, there is always graph paper and a pencil...

Hmmm. Interesting thought. I'll give that a try! Thanks, Judy!

Well, true, but I've done that twice and was hoping for something a
little less time consuming!

Depending on the count of your graph paper, you'd probablyhave to make your
font very big. Plus you'd still have to do some tweaking because of spacing.
It could be done tho - good idea. :-)
