I love that you took the time to complete the worksheet with us, it makes it so much easier to follow along. This video’s made me want to sign up to The Beginner’s Modern Calligraphy course that much more! So good to see you on RUclips 😀
What an amazing guide for the complete beginner - with tips on the right supplies to use and a free worksheet to get you started. I can’t wait to have a go now!
With all your tips and worksheets, I've successfully started my calligraphy journey - the right materials make all the difference! Your Beginner’s Modern Calligraphy Online Course was what made me finally commit, after following you for years!
Thank you for making this video. I love that it's short and gives the basics while still showing the strokes for each of the letters and numbers, and bonus, a worksheet to practice!
This is the year I actually use my supplies and dive in. I'm even on my second potato since the first one rotted. So much for procrastination. 😬Lindsey, love your vidoes and blog. Can't wait to get started!
Thank you so much for the free worksheet & video 💗! I love reading your newsletter, but the video format is very helpful. I watched this morning while eating breakfast.
I have purchased several of Lindsey's calligraphy worksheet sets in different styles as well as some printables and the modern calligraphy video course from The Postman's Knock website and I have been thrilled with all of them. My only problem is that I can't find nearly enough time to actually fill them all out and practice consistently! But I can't help myself from treating myself to something from her catalog every few months because everything is so organized and fun and appealing to look at and very reasonably priced. Thanks for all you do to share your art, Lindsey! It is so appreciated!
I can so relate to the time thing now that I have an infant ... gosh, I thought I didn't have time *before*, and now, well, you can imagine! The time I do have to devote to art and calligraphy is absolute gold. :) This was a gorgeous and kind review ... thanks so much, Mary Ellen!
I have purchased and used several of Lindsey's practice packages, including the Amy font and the "Learn Hand Lettering for aLatte." All of her printable worksheets are beautiful and fun to use. I had not appreciated how useful the videos would be before watching this introduction. It makes a world of difference to see how to hold, angle and pressure the pen.
I happened upon your blog a while ago and have purchased some of your worksheets as well as the online beginners course. But, for whatever reason I had no idea you had a YT channel. Glad to know you are going to be posting here occasionally as it will help us visual learners. (Now if only you were a lefty - hahahaha :)
I haven't been very active on RUclips up until the past couple of months, so you weren't missing much! :) It is a little bit strange, actually, that I'm not a lefty, because my dad is -- as well as my maternal grandmother! Alas ... ;)
I love the graphic explanation and the tools recommendation. I bought the Janet Style Calligraphy set, and now I see that this video complements the instruction fairly well. Thanks!
I loved Her style and teachability for those of us who are beginners. I am looking forward to trying out the free worksheet. Thank you so much for your time and energy to help us newbies. Debi
Hi there, thanks for your very helpful website and videos. I'm gathering supplies and can't wait to get started. My handwriting suffered since I learned to touch-type years ago. It's a use-it-or-lose-it skill, handwriting. And now I'm doing something about it by writing more. At least it no longer looks like a drunken crab sidled across the page when I write. Cheers!
Ha! "At least it no longer looks like a drunken crab sidled across the page when I write" < -- I *love* this! Keep up the good work; I'm so glad you're re-vamping your writing!
I haven't had a chance to take the full online course yet, but this is a super helpful demo! I especially love that you showed us each letter. I wouldn't know where to start on some of them!
Lindsey, I'm so glad you've made videos available. All of your work is lovely, but to see your lettering in action is even more inspiring. Its stunningly beautiful! Thank you so much for sharing!
Lindsey I am so thankful for your talent and that you share it with us. The Modern Calligraphy course is beautiful and I hope I can get it down with practice. It seems like my own calligraphy constantly leaks into what I want to learn. I'd like to learn all the styles and I am wondering how you keep them straight.
Going back to calligraphy after 40 years of, erm, life! Things (mostly products!) sure have changed since my high school night class. But so has what one can learn! So much more beautiful than the medieval script with a #C3 Shaeffer nib! Thanks for the inspiration. Now, to work!
Hi Lindsey, I am very much interested in learning calligraphy but don't know anything about it. I have a lot to learn and hope I can accomplish my goal with your help. I have downloaded the worksheet. I will appreciate if you could guide me to getting pens that are easiest to use and maintain pen, type of paper to use and where to buy them. Thank you.
Hi Lindsey I will like to learn more calligraphy using fountain pen I will like to buy your course I just have a question how meany times can I be able to repeat the videos or is just one time video
I just purchased the online course! I am still on the faux calligraphy step. I'm not sure if I like my handwriting with it. So that is something I need to work on.
I’m thinking of signing up for your online calligraphy course. I’m at staples and they don’t have HP laser paper. They have staples brand premium color laser 32# or premium white 32#. I’m thinking I should get the premium white. It’s also 25% cotton. Thanks
Wonder why it is so relaxing to watch SOMEONE ELSE produce calligraphic art? I love it!
I love that you took the time to complete the worksheet with us, it makes it so much easier to follow along. This video’s made me want to sign up to The Beginner’s Modern Calligraphy course that much more! So good to see you on RUclips 😀
Thanks! It's good to be on RUclips ... videos are actually pretty fun to make. :)
What an amazing guide for the complete beginner - with tips on the right supplies to use and a free worksheet to get you started. I can’t wait to have a go now!
I'm *so* happy you like this video! It's my favorite one on the TPK RUclips so far. :) Thanks, Karen!

So glad your venturing into RUclips. As a visual learner, I learn better this way. Well done! And happy New Year!
Thank you! I'm enjoying it! :)
This introduction on how to prep nibs and what sort of paper to use is very useful. Thank you Lindsey
Yay!! You are very welcome, Swarna!
Excellent video! Your instructions are clear and concise!
I can't wait to get started! I got a custom pen for Christmas and I am so excited to start using it
Best Christmas gift ever!
My boyfriend made it himself with 6 different kinds of wood so it’s very special as well
I remember my grandpa used to write like this. I learned from him when I was much younger. I’ve pretty much forgotten everything. It’s so pretty!
Thank you for making this video. I love that it's short and gives the basics while still showing the strokes for each of the letters and numbers, and bonus, a worksheet to practice!
You are very, very welcome!
I have learned ALOT from the blog and purchased the worksheets. These videos are wonderful additions! Keep posting ;))
So happy that you enjoy them! They have been a great way to "spice things up" for me. :)

Thank you for the stroke and letter demonstration. It’s very helpful to see this and get a feel of how to begin.
I'm very happy that the video acted as a good introduction -- that was my goal!

@@LindseyBugbeeTPK Off of???? What is 'off of' in English? Please stop this ear-bleedingly awful misuse of English.
Thanks so much for this video and practice sheet. The more I practice the better I hope to be.
You are so very welcome, Susan!
Always a good thing to review the basics. Thanks for sharing this!
Of course! Thanks for watching!
Great video. Very easy to follow and so informative. Especially good when you provide a FREE download worksheet. Very much appreciated. :)
Of course! Enjoy!

I also prefer the pointed pen to medieval styles! :) So glad that you are inspired ... I've done my job! ;)
I enjoy your videos
Aw, thanks, Sarah! I'm planning to make/post many more!
