The pattern was originally from this book (this is an affiliate link): amzn.to/2Cm4TOF

Before being altered for this piece!

I'd also recommended the American Duchess Guide to 18th Century Dressmaking (this is an affiliate link) amzn.to/2RWZGlZ

It is written with working on a model in mind, but is really good about explaining historical techniques that aren't clear in other books.
