Old-Time Children's Fashions Coloring Book (Dover Fashion Coloring Book)

This attractive book is tempting me to go buy a box of crayons. I ordered it because I wanted to get some idea of children's clothing of that period for the purpose of making doll costumes. The detailed illustrations will make that task much easier, and there are enough color pictures on the front and back covers to provide some ideas. The pictures are adapted from Sears catalogs of the time, so they should give an excellent idea of what the average little American girl or boy was wearing. Fun for girls of all ages!

Ming-Ju Sun is an outstanding artist whose pictures in this coloring book are perfectly detailed and beautiful in every way! This is my 2nd coloring book of Old-Time Children's Fashion and I am having so much fun with it and find it extremely hard to put down. SO very calming and relaxing to color these beautiful children and the fashions of their day not to mention the FUN!!

As described, clearly printed, my only gripe is that the pages don't tear away cleanly. Not too simple and not too complicated.

We were in awe when we first saw this book. It's very beautiful & modest! I've been looking for a book with modest girls for a long time & finally found it! The artist did a wonderful job with lots of intricate detail & beautiful faces! I highly recommend it. It definitely was above my expectations. Will get more for gifts. I got it for my 5 year old but will color myself too. I'll make copies so we can reuse it multiple times.

Unlike some of the higher end coloring books the pages in this coloring book are not perforated for easy removal and the pages are printed on both sides of each page. This adds to the chance of bleed-through so I recommend using pencils or crayons when coloring in this book. Still the pictures are interesting, diverse and quite interesting and fun to color. Most definitely worth coloring. Nothing's insanely complex but also nothing's childishly simple. This is quite relaxing.

As an author of children's historical novels this is exactly what I need to give me a mental picture of what fashions for children were like. This coloring book would also make a great teaching tool, and perhaps it might interest a child in something besides the moment of today. I think I would have loved this book as a child. I know I certainly do as an adult. Well done!

The fashion is beautiful. Their are large spaces when coloring coats but the dresses have patterns that demand your attention to details. I find that you cannot rush through these drawing because of the lace and ruffles and stitching that these patterns have. They are done to perfection to enhance the beauty of each pattern. Coloring pencils and gel pens do a beautiful job in fulfilling the work that the artist put into these designs.

Once again the pictures are nice but if you use markers it bleeds thru to the picture on the reverse side

ドール服や何かの参考になるかと購入 でも、フツーに塗り絵だった そるから、インスピレーションをひきだせるかは本人次第といったところ、、

I liked the different dresses worn in the pictures

Bought for relative who can no longer get out. She was thrilled as not only does the colouring give her something to do. There is a bit of a history lesson in these books.
