Excellent tutorial
I recently purchased this wonderful calligraphy and flourishing book and since receiving, have enjoyed brushing up on my flourishing skills. I’ve done calligraphy for many years and taken several courses, but the many options presented lend themselves to relaxed instruction and self critique. Upper and lower case letters are covered in depth, along with numbers and phrases. Beautifully done.

Great workbook and reference!
I picked up this workbook at IAMPETH 2024, and even got to meet Amruta, who is as lovely as they come. There are so many options for each type of flourish (ascender, descender, exit, entrance, etc) and each capital letter, as well as some examples of common words or phrases a calligrapher might write. I like to pull it out when I need some guided flourish practice, or need an idea of how to flourish something for a project. Also, the paper it’s printed on is lovely - though I do prefer to use it with layout paper over it, or with my own work side by side. However, it does take ink nicely.
