I actually used the skirt from Past Patterns Sacque & Petticoat (#808) from when I was expecting and made the bodice from the Round Dress and attached them.
I'm sorry for commenting on such an old post but I'm not sure how else to contact you. What did you think of this pattern, both as a sewing project and a wearable result? I'm in the market for a new reenacting dress. I already own this pattern so it's the most obvious Not Totally Inaccurate choice, but I'm having a hard time finding commentary about it (apparently it's not one of PP's most popular patterns?). I'm a bit time-crunched, but I'm enough of a seamstress that I should be OK provided the pattern doesn't have any big surprises (drafting issues, wildly inaccurate sizing, etc.).
Obviously, you can't tell me whether or not I can finish this in time since you don't know me or my abilities, but did you have any problems with it?
Thank you for your time. (If you don't want to re-comment, I can be reached through my blog profile.)
