Each pattern has all the sizes. And they come with an instruction "book" that you can put into a three-ring binder. They are well worth the cost.

I've seen that before and wanted it. I decided to buy the set. My husband forgot Valentine's Day so this is my gift to myself. Paypal is great sometimes. Paid and on it's way to my house.
I hope the package includes all the sizes. Anyone have this? Any suggestions?

Yes. I've read just about every document on how to make these period costumes. I searched online for images and dairies for help. I found the diaries very helpful. I borrowed a copy of Queen Elizabeth's Wardrobe Unlocked from a library. It had lots of details but not what I wanted... suggested patterns. Quite a heavy book! I've seen the eyelet and ribbon attachments on several examples. I saved where they were and images to a disk so I have a collection of parts to use for my costume. I have patterns to use for parts and I guess it'll be a pick-and-choose to get it all like I want.

Have you checked out Margo Anderson's Historic Patterns? She has complete packages with sizes from 2 to 30. I have the original set of Ladies' Underpinnings, Ladies' Gown, and Accessories. Her web site is http://www.margospatterns.com/mainframe.htm .
