I hadn't - I just took the 1880s pattern out of C+C and scaled it up, and added to the pieces to make it fit my measurements (I added too much, as it turns out!). But it seems I'm a tad short-waisted, so I often have to take out at the waist anyway.
When I was making my 1830s corset I added to the waist because my previous set of long stays was way too short - and I added maybe an inch too much, so it buckles horribly! Waist-length is my nemesis, clearly.
