Calligraphy Project

Granted, this picture is over a month old, but I found it again today and wanted to post it. I made up 5 or 6 of these family names for a co-worker for Christmas gifts. It's a fairly easy process -- I use a wider nib to write the last name portion and then switch to a smaller nib to write all the names. It's an easy project and has a lot of meaning for the family.

I've made these for over 7 years now! It all started when I did one up for a family I knew that had 6 children (later 7!) as I thought it was personal and something that they didn't have. I have done them off and on for people (and have had to revise a few when another child joins the family). Mat it & put it in a frame and there you go!
