Are the alphabets complete?

The swash and filigree sheets each chart all 26 capitals from A to Z. The monogram sheet shows a single M.

What is the difference between the three styles?

Swashes are fine monoline capitals with long curling strokes. Filigree fills the capitals with fine scrollwork and tiny leaves. Vines and leaves wind a thin vine with small leaves and buds around each capital.

Can I get a different motif?

Yes. Ask for a heart, a crown or butterflies, and the capitals are drawn with it.

No. They are drawn as clean black line on white.

About toile

This page is a showcase and a starting point: nine samples already rendered, three readings of the pack crossed with three styles, each shown at the size and ratio it was made for. Take any of them further on the wall with a few words, or ask for all nine again under your own direction; a sign-in keeps what you make, and it is free while Toile is new. The recipe behind each sample — the subject, the style, the palette, the framing — travels with the image rather than staying private to the render: it is in the alt text of every sample and in the page's own structured data, so a search engine reads the same handles a person would.
