I found this bit of ephemera on Karen's blog The Graphics Fairy. I love, love typography and calligraphy but when you throw in the hilarious narrative of old timey descriptions I am a goner. My favorite part is, "...no one ever fails who tries to write with this method." Except for Miss B. I fail miserably trying my hand at calligraphy, yet it hasn't stopped me from breaking out the nibs + ink and making a righteous mess. Anyone else try Emilie Friday's Calligraphy starter Kit and had success? I know Whitney and Alex are basically experts now.
