I am looking for a gently used "Past Patterns" brand pattern for a reenactment. It is pattern #702 - a ladies dress bodice. Does anyone have an idea where to locate used patterns?

Your best bet is to watch Ebay.

It seems that any pattern now, Vintage patterns are hard to come by, and you will pay a big price for them.

A pattern I threw away a few months back ( hitting myself) sold at Ebay for 32.00 plus shipping.!

There seems to be plenty of free pattern plans on the web for costumes and costumers. I was searching for something last night (how to bias tape) and a lot of costume designers, complete with instructions, turned up. Try googling "medieval or past costumes". Many styles were not all that old. The following seems to be the only one I saved. Try that and see if there are any links.

Good luck.
