Hi, I just joined IAMPETH, and am looking forward to practicing Copperplate script and meeting likeminded people. I am a student at Rutgers University's library science school, becoming an archivist and have handled many original 16th-18th century documents with beautiful handwriting. That inspired me to try that style of writing as well.

I was directed to this site by a posting on the FPN website and believe that the information here will help me improve my hand to one that I will not be ashamed of.
Thank you

This is absolutely the best resource to learn the pointed pen alphabets. Having a virtual teacher available to show me the strokes from the comfort of my home was an invaluable asset to me, small town gal. Thanks so much for your work on this website. Digital is good, but the pen is STILL mightier than the sword!

Greetings from DownUnder!
Very many thanks for all that you provide. I hope I can add a link to your Association in my new book, 'Calligraphy for Greetings Cards and Scrapbooking' due to be published early in 2012 by GMC Publications in the UK, but which will be sold worldwide.
All best wishes,
Peter

Have done Calligraphy off and on for 35 years. More off than on and mainly using broad nibs. My daughter is getting married and I want to calligraphy her invitations and envelopes. Found this website and fell in love with Copperplate! Bought an oblique holder and some new nibs. All I do now is practice my letters! Where can I get envelope guidelines? Thank you for a wonderful resource to all levels of calligraphers!

Guidelines for various types of lettering can be found here: http://www.iampeth.com/collection/guide-sheets
I hope that helps. The guidelines you will need for your envelopes, will depend on the size of your envelopes and the size of your writing.

I was just wondering if my problems going from a shade to a thin line were my skills(or lack of) , or my equipment. I am using a homemade oblique and a speedball 101. I seem to drag a bit of ink behind me on the transitions.I have a lot of trouble going back to a thin line in a short time. It is only in the short changes like Joes lowercase "O" (top that is giving me problems. Any help would be great. :-)
