Ever wondered the story behind the TPK Learn for a Latté calligraphy styles? More importantly, have you found yourself in the, “Which one is best for me?” dilemma?

First-time visitors to this website often email me asking for a side-by-side comparison of the printable Learn Calligraphy for a Latté styles.

This post should benefit past, present, and future worksheet users; and help you to decide which calligraphy styles fit you — and your project — best. I was initially going to include all the LCfaL styles in this post, but when it began to turn into a veritable novel, I decided to split it into two parts. So, look for the second half (Janet, Beth, Hand-Lettering) in the next blog post!

Before I dive into to comparing the calligraphy styles, I want to briefly explain how the Learn Calligraphy for a Latté worksheets came about. Basically, when I, myself, was learning calligraphy a couple of years ago, I felt lost. I tried purchasing books, but they all were sort of archaic and boring (with the notable exception of Modern Calligraphy by Molly Suber Thorpe). All the blogs I looked at were geared towards people who were more skilled and knowledgeable than me, which was frustrating and kind of discouraging. I mean, like, I really had no idea how to even tell nibs apart … who knew the names were etched in the base?! When someone would say, “I’m using my Brause EF66 nib,” I was going, “Bruce who?” (If you’re in this boat right now, The Lowdown on Calligraphy Nibs post will get you up to speed.)
