A nice costume coat, thanks for sharing!

So, you would recommend this over the McCall's pattern for Civil War era men's coat? We do reenactments and my husband wants a frock coat. I bought the McCall's, but after your review, I 'm not certain I will use it. Thanks for the two reviews. They come just in time to help me make a decision!

Fantastic, great result!

Mary - they are in reality two very different coats. If you are looking for *literally* a civil war coat, I would look for a different one than McCall, although I admit I do not know if such a thing exists. The McCall coat was MUCH harder in comparison to this one, which is supposed to be street clothes rather than a costume!

I'm impressed that you jumped in and made an advanced tailored jacket on a time crunch. Great job!

It looks great on the gentleman wearing it!

Thanks! The coat looks great! I'll be using these costume-making tips. Very clever ideas!

Wonderfully done (like all these costumes you've reviewed)! The cast looks great! Thank you for another really helpful review. Do I spy a Sense and Sensibility 1910s tea gown pattern in the photo with the gentlemen?

MagPie Jen - you do! Although my co-Costume Mistress made that dress, not me, so she's going to review it.
