Annalise Morwen Discovery: Most plain skirts for garb work wonderfully for the pre-Civil War era. Thank goodness or I would go crazy. I really like the McCall's mideval patterns. They make it very easy to change. Also the chemise pattern 4091 is really good expect you have to hem the sleeves BEFORE you make the drawstring channel. That could have been aggrivating.
Good to know. I can't sew yet (I've made one piece of garb, a nice 12th century gown, and that was with my mother dictating my every move, lol...she makes my garb for me) but I plan on learning as soon as I can.

Best thing to do is just to dive in and get your hands dirty, so to speak. Start with simple stuff and cheap fabric. The dollar-a-yard tables at wal-mart are your friends. That's what I did. After a bit of practice you start getting more comfortable with it and pretty soon you'll find that you can confidently make just about anything. smile

Wow, these are great hints. I'm Maid-of-Honoring for my cousin's handfasting, and it's a Faire themed gathering...i.e., we must make three flower faerie outfits, six or seven Scottish kilt ensembles, four bridesmaid uniforms, each consisting of bodice, skirt, and shirt, my outfit, two for the bride, one for the groom, as well as garb for about eight to ten of the guests.
...it's madness. But lots of fun.
