In a sense it's multi-era, but the focus is on learning flat patterning
techniques to do what you want to do.

Thanks for that tip - I've seen it on amazon.com before, but I didn't know
whether it's what I'm looking for:-)) They don't say much about this book
there, could you tell me what periods does it cover? How many different sorts
of costumes are there? For men, women or both? Are there accessories - like
headdresses etc. as well? How much period are the patterns (seams etc)? Are
there patterns for corsets?

The best book for drafting both historical and modern patterns is Rosmary
Ingraham's Costume Technician's Handbook. She walks you through how to do a
sloper and how to alter it into whatever form you want. You can also try a Flat
Patterning book once you've mastered Rosemary's book - I use it all the time!!!
