I've practiced a lot already in the ways that you've all described. However, just as there are resources for drawing the figure, I know that there are good resources out there for drapery. There are "formulas," so to speak, on the ways that drapery behaves. Certain stress points will make the drapery behave differently and then there is the matter of the thickness and other qualities of the fabric. I recall seeing a book once on this and it was kind of helpful but not completely.
Leslie, the Wetcanvas links on drapery were a big help. This is more of the resource that I was looking for. Thanks.
I am still looking for other resources if any of you know of them. I plan to collect such things so I may post them on my website.
