Does anyone know where I can get just a basic civilian sack coat kit? I would prefer a kit since I am a novice sewer and would not trust my skills with a pattern.
Thanks,

You can do it. Cut out the pattern and pin it to the fabric. Cut the fabric around the edge. Buy extra fabric if you don't trust yourself. Get help! -but you can do it.
I think period impressions made the pattern i used and it turned out great and I'm no terrific sewer. Remember to iron it flat as you go.
