Default beautician embrooidery designs

My GD will graduate this spring and am making her a t-shirt quilt. The shirt from her beauty school has enough room for me to stitch out some designs under the logo.
Does anyone know where to find some free designs that are simple and not stitch dense. Also would consider sayings, might create words from my sewing machine alphabet feature.
Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

I am not sure about "free", but if you check out Embroidery Library and put 'beautician" in the search box, you will find some really cute borders, crests, and a few others. Average price is $1.00 each.
"Free" is not always good. The old saying of "you get what you pay for" is good to remember. Not saying that every free design is bad, there are some very talented digitizers out there. But there are many unskilled digitizers who use auto digitizing software that just does not work very well.
$1.00 is not too bad to pay for a nice design from a reputable embroidery company. Why waste your time, energy and supplies on a project that you want both you, and your GD, to be proud of?
Good luck to you and congratulations to her!

Thank you for the memory jog about Embroidery Library, it has been too long not doing embroidery. Will go check out the site to see what I can find, $1.00 is a good price. You are right on target with finding something both of us can be proud of using.
Thank you again for your help.

I have some that I got from Ytmar at Retroboulevard, but I'm not sure if she's still in business.
