Earlier this month, I had the joy of going to Dublin, Ireland to teach a private workshop. Although I have lots of Irish blood in my family tree, I had never ventured to Eire, so I jumped at the chance, and extended my visit for a couple days to sightsee. Everything about the trip was fantastic, from my late-night stroll across the Liffey to my first real serving of bangers and mash.

My client had set up the class at Fumbally Stables, a beautiful, cozy space, perfect for spending a late winter afternoon. We put Simon & Garfunkel on the record player, made a pot of tea, and inked letters for a good four hours. It was calligraphy heaven!

Venue: Fumbally Stables (Dublin, Ireland)

A calligrapher, teacher, and author, Molly’s work spans both modern lettering and historical script. She writes about calligraphy and handwriting as creative disciplines—shaped by tools, technique, habit, and attention—and considers what it means to write by hand in a digital age. In addition to designing custom lettering for clients, she creates books, free resources, and online classes for people who want to develop their calligraphy and handwriting, whether as a creative outlet, a professional skill, or both.
