Also, try Smoke and Fire for patterns.

Generally Rev War events, at least on the East coast, have
participants organized in military units. Is it a battle event? If
so, then it's probably mostly reenactment units. The organization is
important for safety and "walk on" participants are discouraged.
I'll have to check. The guy who invited me is from a unit of
Highlanders, but I was thinking I'd just stick to my civilian clothes.
Unfortunately, those have about everything I need -- except a coat.
OTOH, if it's strictly military thing, I'll probably just stick to
modern stuff.
... As far as a coat, again this depends on what you are doing at the
event. Military, militia, civilian? You could get by with a fairly
uncomplicated sleeved waistcoat.
Are there any good patterns readily available?

no idea on the former question, but on the latter (coat), have you
tried jas townsend's?? (don't have url to hand, sorry, but whenever
I need them I google or yahoo them....)
I'll have to check them. Thanks.
