Rearranged, b/c I added links as I found them. I think the first one will help a lot.

OOOH! Success! The 30-minute farthingale. I've marked this page for myself. Good for last-minute or one-time only costume.

A "period" (authentic) farthingale

The Spanish Farthingale Page (where I found the 30-min. pattern)

Here's a fairly cheap one to buy.

There's some on eBay right now for decent prices.

To make:

18th Century Hoopskirt
An "about" page

Thanks for the suggestions! I'm bidding on a Civil War hoop petticoat off Ebay right now- some great prices!
