How to use Dom Loves Mary Calligraphy font flourishes

A few people have asked me to demonstrate how to use the Dom Loves Mary Calligraphy font flourishes.  So I made my very first screen recording! It only took 4 tries:)

I’ve uploaded it to my You Tube channel.  Hope it helps explain some things about the font and how the flourishes fit with the upper and lower case letters.

Since this is the first of many tutorials that I’ll be making, I’d appreciate some feedback about what I did well and what I could do differently.

I really want to get better at this, so your comments would be greatly appreciated!

Yesterday, I talked about the workshop I attended with Barbara Close.  But I forgot to share the great gifts each attendee received.

They were handcrafted by Jeri Wright and Sherry Barber, Kaligrafos members  who put the workshop together.  They are both wonderful calligraphers and so creative and crafty.

They made one of these for each of us and placed themt on the doors of our rooms.  ( It’s was a sleep over workshop:)

These smaller “Welcome”  signs were placed at each place at the table.

For both items, they used a combination of wood, wire, beads and paint and lovingly hand made each one.

It really added to the warm feeling of the weekend.

Thanks Jeri and Sherry!
