The Bible stories section contains mix-and-match patterns for men, women, and children in biblical clothing that may be used to act out stories from both the Hebrew Bible and New Testament. The patterns will be suitable for most characters in Bible stories. Additional templates include patterns for Moses (which could be used for Noah, Abraham and other older men), Adam and Eve (which may be used for any man or woman), and Jesus. The printables can be downloaded for a small fee from my Teachers Pay Teachers site
