Who doesn’t love free? And who doesn’t love fonts? (well, okay, at least WE love fonts!) For those of you who love both, we've put together a list of some our favorites. First up, Kalico's graphic designer, Jen Tyler lists some of her favorite FREE fonts…
It was a hard task to limit the list to so few. However, these are the ones that made the cut in my book. (Kim will be adding her favorites in a later post so keep an eye out.) If you find you can’t live without them either, just click on the name and you’ll be re-directed to download the font.

| I love the controlled curvy nature of this script. Its perfect connections (“ligatures”) really give me an affinity for this font. It makes a bold statement and is also fun used as outlines. |
 |
| This delicate little font could be used in so many instances. Holidays, Babies, Handwriting, the list goes on and on. |
 |
| This is probably one of the fonts I use the most. I have been giving it a
rest for a little while but it seems to work almost anywhere. It makes a
nice statement alone as well as in a group |
 |
| Fun in outlines or with a color dropped behind it. The rough edges add a nice texture too! |
 |
| A great retro inspired script font. |
 |
| I like the imperfection of this font. It has that indie feel to it.
It also comes with a nice set of anchor-dings. However, use caution.
This font has no numerals. |
 |
| A nice throwback font. Endless possibilities. Best used as a display font, we wouldn't recommend using this below 18pt. |
 |
| I like this font for its playfulness. The texture makes it feel more
natural. This also has many applications and is fun paired with an
equally thinner font. |
 |
| Okay so this font is not “FREE”, it's “free for personal use” and you
should always make sure and check the terms of use before you use a
font. That being said, this font is so beautiful. It just makes my
imagination soar. |
For a quick a recap, take a look at all of them together, below. And stay tuned for Kim's list of favorites to come soon! Plus, let us know what some of your favorite FREE fonts are!

Hey Jen! Cute fonts! I noticed they were all from dafont though... have you been to fontsquirrel.com or losttype.com - some other sites to find pretty & free (or pay what you want) fonts!! xoxo, melissa.
Thanks for the info Melissa! I found some great script fonts on fontsquirrel and will be sure to mention these sites in post #2.
