    Great experience with this seller. Boots arrived in the UK with perfect packaging. No damage to the box. Postage i believe was reasonable to the UK. The boots exceeded my expectations and perfectly described. Very happy with the price I paid and definitely value for money

    The item was as expected and arrived sooner than expected. The box was banged up by the USPS (crushed a bit) because it was rammed into a rural mailbox and the paper packaging offered no protection. I am hoping that the kit was not damaged.

    A worthwhile book for anyone who is sewing 18th century clothing.

    Beautiful book, generous with instructions and illustrations. Answered questions I didn't know I had. This type of sewing looks difficult for the non-sewing person (me), but the book is tremendously interesting and informative. Note that this is a book for hand work, not machine sewing. The garments require fitting to the wearer, and some draping, instead of just following patterns. Some of the garments look very difficult to achieve, like the gowns, but some, like the shift and pockets and neckerchiefs, seem simple to cut and stitch. This is a worthwhile book for anyone who is sewing 18th century clothing.

    Delicious details

    Being fond of sewing by hand, this book provides clear instructions for daunting projects. Every item of several complete ensembles is separated with photos, history and helpful tips. Before this book I never would tackle an entire outfit by hand, and now I cannot wait to get started!

    Historical Clothing

    If you are going to hand make a garment from the 18th Century this would be your guide. It does include pattern, but too much hand work for me to do. I would rather use a sewing machine. It does detail the stitching, types of fabric used and linings. Fascinating historical information of the period.

    Love my new book

    I knew was a good purchase. I’ll be ready to make one of the dresses in the fall and the instructions are wonderful.

    At first appearance, the book looked fine and in good condition. But as soon as I took it out of the plastic bag it was in, the smell of cigarettes hit me. Hopefully I’ll be able to get the smell out with baking soda.
