If you could decipher that, you know it says, "TAILCOAT"

I LOVE tailcoats. However, they're impossible to find, and you either buy cheap costume ones or you buy expensive well-tailored ones. Thus, I am compelled to sew my own.

Patterns are een more impossible. I've gone to my favorite fabric store and found nothing. However, eBay pulled through for me, but I don't think I like the pattern... that, and I don't liek eBay DX.

I also found and interesting website that lets you download patterns are print them out O.o. I'm a little confused as to how this works, and they ask for your credit card number. It has a pattern for a WOMEN'S (Confused? So am I...) tailcoat. If you want to see it, click here.

I also have a friend who would like me to make him a tailcoat. After the end of this year, I can't really make one for him, either. x.x;

Do you have any information on where I can find a pattern? Or, do oyu have know how I can make my own pattern or even alter a pattern to make one? Anything helps!

Thank you so much for your help! <3

WHen printing out the pattern they would either tell you how much larger to blow up the pattern at a copymaker-place or it will all print out and you will need to tape it together...or so I would assume ^_^;
