I'm passing this request on for Kerry. If you can help her, please contact her at [email protected]
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I am desperately seeking help on constructing a mantua (1680's). Have you any experience or know of anyone who has made this type of garment? I have tried Reconstructing History's pattern but it hasn't been very user friendly (to me) and I am getting very discouraged.

Yes, we have talked to the pattern makers at Reconstructing History but they, too, have realized some discrepancies in pattern directions/instructions. I just thought I'd see if I could find someone else who might have created this kind of garment so as to get a different perspective or learn from their experience.

I would appreciate your offer of furthering my email onto your costume list to see what we might be able to find out.
Any assistance you can give me would be greatly appreciated.

Kerry
