I honestly have to say I don't recommend those patterns. They look nice, and they cover a neglected period, and I'm sure a lot of work went into them. However, I know of two people who have tried to use those patterns and not had good results. One fit poorly and had confusing directions, and one was poorly researched ( and misleadingly represented on the pattern cover.) and incompletely presented. I'd rather someone use the Simplicity pirate patterns than those, where the directions are more clear from step to step and What-you-see-is-what-you-get on the cover.
