My good china is a set of plain white with a thin gold band around the edge. My mum bought it by the box (4 place settings each) a few years ago. Works beautifully in any holiday setting and didn't break the bank. I'm not a fan of spending hundreds of dollars on dinnerware that you have to be too careful with cause you won't use it.
I think I missed something, what's the petticoat for? Have you thought of flat pleating it into the waistband? Eighteenth Century quilted petticoats would have had their quilting stop about hip height, then are pleated into a band, flat across the front and back and flat pleated towards the side seams.
