Blanche Payne has scale drawings of patterns. Her History of Costume
book is where I first started back in college. :-)
Norah Waugh's books: Corsets & Crinolines, Cut of Men's Clothes and
Cut of Women's Clothes all have scale patterns, too.
Are you looking strictly for drafts taken from garments? Or are you
looking for any pattern that is printed small and intended to be
scaled up? I think Hunnisett's have been adjusted to make them easier
to fit, whereas Arnold's are truer to the original garments. Are you
just teaching the scaling, or also teaching how to fit from one body
to another?

I'm teaching a workshop on how to scale up patterns of original
garments that have been drawn out such as the ones you see from
Janet Arnold. I'm trying to compile a lit of sources for these
patterns. Other than the usual suspects of Janet Arnold and Jean
Hunnisette does anyone have any sources for these types of patterns?
