FIG Meeting

The acronym FIG stands for Fiber Interest Group. We meet every couple of months to show, share and/or ask for advice on anything related to fiber. Click here for an account of the day.

Calligraphy: First Class

When I was in grade school, penmanship was taught using the Palmer Method. Writing exercises involved making loops and up-and-down strokes. Now, years later, I'm at it again. I signed up for an italic calligraphy course. For years, I have wanted to improve my handwriting by learning this script. The first class met today and our assignment was to learn to use a nibbed pen by making random marks.
In the afternoon, I met with a fiber interest group (f.i.g.) of friends and artists to share a potluck and recent projects. More on my F.I.G. blog.
