Oops...hit send before I finished saying what I wanted to say....
The coats we made were essentially just like a civilian coat except
for the reveres [the folded back sections on the front] and the mariner
cuffs. Ours were rather full in the back [because it was 1757] but the
get narrower and more cut away as the century progresses.

Subject: [h-cost] 18th century military jacket pattern
Hi there, the 18th century has some truly nifty clothes and i decided
i just have to make something. It's likely that this will take a long
time and end up somewhat crap but i'd like to try anyway :-)
I'm looking for a pattern for a coat like this man is wearing.

I'm not really sure where to start because i don't know the proper
name for it (redcoat?) and wondered if you fine people could help me
:-)
Thank you for any and all help.

Yours sincerely
