Hey everyone,

My daughter has to do a state report oral presentation for school. She chose to do Kentucky as her state. She has to dress up and give her presentation. She chose Mary Todd Lincoln as her famous Kentuckan(sp). She is a 4th grader, so I need to look for a child dress. Can anyone suggest where to look for an 1800's style dress or a pattern to make one. I have 5 weeks to get this done! Please, I know somebody out there can help me!:mickey:

Most of the pattern companies have a historic section in their costumes part of the book. It shouldn't be too hard to find. Probably can find it at JoAnn's. If you can't find in child size I sometimes just find a pic of what I am looking for and find a princess or some type of costume pattern I can alter to make look like it. Good luck
