The current Curator of Costume at the Wisconsin State Historical Society
is Leslie Bellais.  I could be wrong, but I don't believe that they are
producing the patterns any longer, but they may still have them for
sale.  They were mostly 19th century patterns, and to the best of my
knowledge they never sold built (finished) garments.  All patterns were
taken from garments in their collection.

For more info, contact Leslie at the State Historical Society of
Wisconsin, 816 State Street, Madison, WI  53706, 608-264-6551.
