Does anyone know a good book on drafting patterns for historical
costumes? I mean drafting custom patterns, like tailors do. I've been
searching for some such books on amazon.com, but I haven't found anything
promising. Since I can't look inside the book, I never know whether it's
a "tailor - drafting" book or not.
P.S.: I'd welcome periods from the middle ages to the turn of the
century (19/20)
There is a reprint of a c.1901 one for drafting patterns for women's
clothes. If you're interested in that period, I'll go look up the
particulars. But if you want to cover more than that one narrow period,
you may have to get several books.
