Chippendale fret pattern

I'm looking for simple scroll saw pattern for a fret work corner
bracket, the type you would put in the corner between the leg and
apron of a chippendale writing desk. My online searches are just
bringing up lots of very complicated scroll saw patterns of every
type.

Anyone know where to find what I'm looking for or do I have to make it
myself?

Chippendale's own "Director" is available in cheap reprint from Dover
books.

Or else buy an old catalogue from a furniture sale at a good auction
house (S/H bookshop). There's often suitable design inspiration to be
had from those, and the photography is beautiful quality.
