I want to sew a few period pieces this summer. Tips?
I plan on sewing:
-1 Regency dress
-1 Renaissance dress
-possibly 1 50s dress
I have never sewn a dress before, but I have sewn pants and a skirt.
Does anyone have tips/sites? I've never worked with patterns before, either.
Find a basic sewing class and learn to read and adjust commercial patterns. Some pattern sources:

The proper undergarments are going to be critical for a period look, so you're going to be sewing stuff from the skin out if you're going for authenticity.
Reviews on quite a few patterns are available at http://www.patternreview.com
Also, you might want to poke around at Kate Dicey's website, both in the "hysterical costuming" section and the "learning" section: http://www.katedicey.co.uk
