OVERVIEW
Templates, calligraphy tables, and delightful examples of use guide those who are learning this skill for the first time.

The main templates of the alphabet (upper and lower case) with related practical exercises form the main part of the book and teach how to form the letters correctly. Finally, the practical examples presented at the end of the book give advice on using calligraphy, for greetings cards, place cards, invitations, and many other interesting ideas.
