Unlock this bundle to begin your calligraphy journey with confidence and craft.
The TPK Modern Calligraphy Starter Kit is the very best kit out there. After years of teaching students — both in person and online — I have a unique understanding of the tools and instructions that ensure your success! That’s why this kit includes:
Calligraphy starter kit dimensions are 9.75″ long x 7″ wide x 2.25″ tall (24.75 cm x 18 cm x 5.75 cm).
The self-paced Beginner’s Modern Calligraphy Online Course is every bit as effective as my in-person calligraphy workshops. There are no time or demonstration constraints, so I was able to include absolutely everything that you need to know! On film, I am able to communicate concepts from different shooting angles, and you can pause and re-watch videos as needed. If you don’t quite understand how to do something, there’s a “Discussion” portion under each lesson where you can ask questions. Lessons include a short quiz and homework assignments. Here’s the course layout, including video durations (minutes/seconds):
Note that this lesson includes a 10-page printable workbook that is separate from the course workbook. If you choose to complete this lesson, you will need a printer.
The course ends with a short video explaining your post-course homework. The total viewing time for this course is approximately 4.5 hours, but I’d recommend allocating two months to do everything that you’re asked to do in the course.
Once you purchase this listing, you will be given full access to the course videos and worksheet set! Please note that you must have or create an account on TPK to take the course. If you do not have an account, you can easily create one during the checkout process (or create one now). Once you checkout, you will receive an email with a link to the course, or you can find the course in your account.

What an amazing way to be introduced to the art of calligraphy! An art I’ve always wanted to try. I had plenty of time on my hands during the pandemic while staying at home. I started out in April with a do-it- yourself workbook and some brush markers from a mail order company. Needless to say, I didn’t get very far with that. Then, a month ago, a dear friend told me about Lindsey and The Postman Knocks, and WOW…. I was hooked immediately! Although a little intimidated about trying to use the pen and ink, I didn’t hesitate to order the calligraphy pen set and enroll in the Beginner Course. I just completed the course this morning and can’t wait to start some serious practice so I can be ready for the Intermediate Course. Lindsey’s method of teaching the video course is so relaxed, understandable and easy for anyone. I would highly recommend this class. THANK YOU LINDSEY!

I’ve always been interested in penmanship, so I was naturally drawn to calligraphy. I was delighted to find The Postman’s Knock! The lessons are extremely well done and are very thorough and the handouts are a welcome reference any time. I so appreciate the many tips, worksheets, and beautiful projects to help me develop my new calligraphy skills…they’re all so fun and I’m hoping to try many of them. Thank you for sharing your creativity and enjoyment of beautiful penmanship!

I found the course very informative and enjoyable. Lindsey has an energetic style that keeps the viewer engaged. I feel that what was provided in this course was worth the cost of the course.

This course is AMAZING. It teaches you the basics of calligraphy, how to get started, how to troubleshoot. The worksheets are amazing. And if you mess up you can just print them again! A great deal!

As a writer, I create my own cards with personal congratulations, sympathy, happy wishes, and thoughtful poetry. I thought calligraphy would make my cards more fun and attractive to open and read. During my research for a beginning course, I saw The Postman’s Knock. Intrigued by the title, I read through Lindsey’s program and viewed her beautiful work. I found a treasure! The beginning calligraphy course set me on a journey that is ongoing; her tutoring, sharing, clear instructions with photo examples all helped me gain confidence and a new skill set. When I need to review, I go back to that course and practice again. Thank you, Lindsey, and those who receive cards from me comment often at how much they enjoy my work and gift to them.

Awesome course! I really enjoyed both the online and in person beginner course. Lindsey has the most skillful process of the art of calligraphy! I have learned so much from her teaching that I am able to now create beautiful calligraphy on my own. While I am still perfecting my new skills, I will say that I wouldn’t be where I am in the process without Lindsey’s courses! I am so looking forward to learning even more with her intermediate course!

There are so many great things about this course but I think the most important is the way it’s set up to provide encouragement and manageable practice that keeps you going until you start to get the hang of calligraphy and see results you can be proud of. It does a great job providing tons of information, supply advice, and useful tips, but at the end of the day, learning calligraphy just takes time and practice to get the feel for balanced nib pressure, the correct angles, etc. This course is absolutely perfect for providing inspiring practice that kept it fun and kept me going until I got to the point that I was comfortable and motivated enough to be able to go off and do other projects/my own thing. I work a busy, full time schedule, and really didn’t need one more thing that would feel like another chore to do, but I was serious about learning calligraphy, and this made it such a breeze because it was fun from the start.

I always look forward to receiving an e-mail from Lindsay. What creative ideas she has, always keeps me motivated. The calligraphy class is easy to follow and the homework assignments follow along nicely. I got to start practicing!

This course is excellent. It explains everything (literally a-z and beyond). I have gone from being a complete novice to having a workable knowledge of what is required to be able to do calligraphy to the best of my ability. As well as showing the letter formation, I particularly like that Lindsey has projects and drills which ensure practice is fun and enjoyable. I would highly recommend this course to anyone who is interested in calligraphy.
