Howdy, I am a historic reenactor and what I know about sewing is the same that anyone of you out there may know about Christopher Columbus contribution to the Social Security. But I have a BIGGGGG problem: I want to build, sew, make, whatever, my own military uniform for the 1797 Spanish colonial times. Is there any help or guides from were to start? Or should I go fishing or golf??
Please help me with this. I really want to properly reenact. Thank you all.

What I did manage to find is a picture of a petticoat for the last five years of the 19th century in Costume in Detail. The bodice is fantastic in detail for copying - not at all what I would have expected. The down side is that while I can now pattern it and it will fit under the dress I want to make - I can't decide how full the skirt should be. Any idea with yours?????
