A few weeks ago, our contributor Rebecca Caridad held her first group calligraphy workshop. She invited seven lovely ladies to come to her home to enjoy treats, refreshments, and to learn the basics of modern calligraphy. In the two-hour workshop, they went over over letter structure, spacing, and how to develop their own style of calligraphy. They practiced the alphabet and moved on to words to review how to connect letters. It's a great way to not only mingle, but master a new craft - especially something that takes some patience and a group of gal pals.
