I am looking for a free 'ankh' design to embroider on my daughter's wedding gown. Can anyone help? Thank you.

question(maybe a stupid question): what is ankh?
I would like to help but don't know the meaning of this.

The Ankh (U+2625 ☥), also known as key of life, the key of the Nile or crux ansata, was the ancient Egyptian hieroglyphic character that read "eternal life", a triliteral sign for the consonants ʻ-n-ḫ. Egyptian gods are often portrayed carrying it by its loop, or bearing one in each hand, arms crossed over their chest.
