How to write Shelby in cursive
- 1Form the capital S on its own and lift before the next letter.
- 2Keep the pencil down through h-e-l-b-y, letting each exit stroke become the next letter's entry.
The capital S fills the space between the baseline and the topline. h, l, and b are tall letters that reach toward the topline. y drops below the baseline. e stays between the baseline and the midline.
