Oh my gosh, you guys. It’s finalllllly done! Today I’m happy to announce the debut of my first ever brush script font, Tuesday Script! I started this font in early December, following the same processes as the font project, but this time in script form, so there were a few adjustments to make sure all the letters flowed and connected properly together. Plus – this font comes with international supported characters so how those were made in the program was another learning experience ๐ I took the leap and purchased the pro version of Glyphs (which is not so cheap, but I was able to get a discount by providing them with my itunes receipt from my Glyphs Mini purchase). I’m no expert yet, and when I figure some of the fancier features out, I may create a full class (is that something you’d want?), but for now, I’m celebrating the win of having the font complete and ready for you!
Spencer coded up another text editor, so you can try the full font out below. I’d love to hear what you think!

Yes Teela, this is a beautiful font, I love it and I will definitely buy it! Thanks for all that you share, it’s exciting!

Thanks so much for checking it out! Means a lot to have your support ๐

First of all, congrats on your first script font! I wish you many many more! It’s really beautiful!
Now, since you asked, the only thing I found lacking- there are not all European glyphs. We use ฤ, ฤ, ลฝ, ฤ in Serbian, Croatian, Slovenian and other Slavic languages. Most modern script fonts don’t have these, unfortunately… ๐

Hey Ivana! Thanks so much for pointing that out since I definitely have all of those characters included in the font! Spence updated the font previewer with true webfont files and you should see it working now ๐

Looks great! ๐

Beautiful, congratulations! I am just embarking on the font creation journey myself and trying to find as many tutorials as I can to help me along the way. There aren’t that many – it seems to be a bit of a dark art :). I would enrol in your Glyphs class in a heartbeat – you have such an amazing teaching style. I have a trial version of Glyphs Mini, but I’d love to get your opinion on whether upgrading to the full version is worth it. So far I can see the mini version doesn’t support masters and ligatures are tricky to do? Also you said that the mini version doesn’t support International characters in an earlier tutorial? Thank you for your generosity in sharing – you’re an inspiration!

Thanks so much, Sophia! You’re totally right about the dark art – I feel like I’m mostly alone in learning things myself – Glyphs has some good articles but holy moly, there are a lot of terms that are foreign to me. Definitely learning a lot as I go and I’m really glad I purchased the full version, I just wouldn’t feel right selling a font without some international character support. I also like that I have every option available for exporting webfonts and if there’s something I want to do, I already know the pro version will support it ๐

I love you and all your work, HUGE fan.. I’m on your site a couple times a week crossing my fingers that you’ve produced new material or even a new post in between Tuesdays… Keep up the good work and give good ol’ Spence a pat on the back too!
Teela | Author | January 26, 2016

Aww, that means so much to me! Thanks so much for checking everything out, and Spence definitely appreciates that pat on the back! ๐

Congratulations on creating your first script font! I just bought it and am excited to use it! I love your work!!
You might be interested in talking the folks at Design Cuts in the UK as another avenue to sell your beautiful font (to get wider reach) https://www.designcuts.com/. I am not affiliated with them other than I’ve been following them for a while on Facebook and have purchased packages from them as well as from you. Seems like you’d be an artist that they would want to work with! Good luck and thanks for all your great work! Keep it coming! ๐

Thanks so much for your support and for the tip! Definitely a fan of theirs, too ๐ Different deal sites weigh the amount artists are able to get differently, so I’m not sure of their structure, but def something to look into!

Hi Teela
I purchased your font on monday and i absolutely love it! it’s really awesome! Now i have a small issue: if i use it in the InDesign program it looses it everytime i shut hte computerdown and i have to reinstall it to be able to see it again in InDesign. When i want to reinstall it always says that its already installed and whether i want to replace it and after i click yes it works again and i can normally use it. Do you have any idea what the problem could be? (I have a PC).
And second question: Can i use a heartshaped confetti brush that i created in Photoshop according to your tutorials in my InDesign document? And how?
Thank you som much for your awesome tutorials by the way. I absolutely love them!
Teela | Author | January 27, 2016

Thanks so much for the purchase! So sorry to hear InDesign is being a jerk. I did some research online and it seems this is something common (a glitch, if you will) with InDesign + windows + non-default fonts. Here’s a workaround that I think will help: when you finish working on your file, after you save it, go to file > package. This will create a folder that contains all the images and fonts used with your file plus an indesign file that links to all of those, so when you open the indesign file *within that folder* the next time you turn on your machine, InDesign will know exactly where to pull the font from.
For the confetti brush – since that’s a photoshop specific brush, you won’t be able to use it as a brush in InDesign, but you could create your artwork in Photoshop, save it as a high res jpg, then place it into your InDesign document (file > place).
Hope that helps! Let me know if anything is still acting up and I’ll do my best to troubleshoot ๐
Kathrin | January 27, 2016

Super, thank you very much for your immediate answer. I will try it out as soon as possible and if i need further troubleshooting i will come back to you again. The hint for the brush is defenitely gonna help me a lot. The heartshaped confetti brush is for my wedding invitation and its gonna look superawesome together with my vectorised illustrations. i’m very excited about it already.
Thanks a lot! you’re the best!

I just found your page a few days ago and am quite exited! So much great inspiration here. This font is beautiful, but as a Dane I am lacking the letters รฆ, รธ and รฅ. Could they be added to this or any future script font? Its hard to find good script fonts including these special nordic letters. Thanks!
Teela | Author | January 27, 2016

Hey Kira!
Those letters are included ๐ I just put them in the font editor and they’re showing up for me. If it helps, here’s a screenshot of every letter in the font: http://138.68.151.169/wp-content/uploads/2016/01/Screen-Shot-2016-01-27-at-4.14.16-PM.png

Fabulous tutorials! I’m trying to master hand lettering and I find them super helpful. Also, what a great font – I’ve just purchased it for a new project I’m working on and it looks fabulous! Thank you for sharing your skills with such passion! x

Teela I enjoy your work so much! It is so inspiring! Thanks so much for including Spanish characters. Are they available in another font? ๐ Have a great day!

Thanks Adriana! And yep! I offer Spanish characters in my fonts: Miss Magnolia, Espresso Roast and Hawthorne Script, too ๐
