My DH is a retired surveyor and we have a (once very expenseive, now useless to him) survey software package based on a 3 dimensional grid. Two dimensions are perfect for drawing up lace! I drew myself up a grid of "dots" which I copy for each new pattern, then "edit" each dot I want to a different colour and layer in the program until I have enough for one repeat. I then get rid of all the base dots, copy and rotate to my heart's content and print out at any scale I want to. There is a sample on my website - the "Cooma Kiss" hanky edge. I have no intention of copyrighting it, everyone is welcome to copy it, use it, print it elsewhere (eg in newsletters), share it around. I respect copyright for those who are trying to earn some money from their books, but I am unlikely to design anything worth putting in books!
