"Amy’s book made me excited about historical costumes again - costumes that I can easily make! I loved the simple instructions and helpful pictures." Nicole, age 16

"Costumes with Character is jam-packed with good things! Beautiful photos, patterns for your own use, historical tidbits, even how to give a tea party! With a full 3 pages of recommended classic reading and scripture throughout, this is definitely one you’ll want for your homeschool library!" Elaine, homeschool mom

"This book is a true delight! It has a professional feel with detailed instructions but also many "extras" that reflect Amy’s love of history including questions and quotes about each time period. Hoping to see more volumes in the future about even more time periods and also volumes for boys’ costumes too!" Connie, homeschool mom

"Awesome! That is the only way to describe Costumes with Character. I love to make costumes and this was a must for my collection. There are so many useful ideas and I plan to have hours of enjoyment. I highly recommend this book for young girls who love clothes and the history behind them." Elizabeth, age 17

"Costumes with Characters would be a real benefit to the homeschooling mother who teaches with the unit study method. As her children study different time periods her girls could sew the costumes and dress for the occasion. I highly recommend this book for unit study learning." Kathleen, homeschool mom
