[h-cost] What Costume-related gifts did you get?

2010-12-28 Thread Jane Pease
Ooh, ooh, I was so fortunate! I got the R. L. Shep book--Federalist and Regency 
Costume.  I have wanted it for the longest time.

Thanks for the information.  I think we'll scan the cover and make ourselves a 
dustjacket.  Our books need the actual extra protection, although we're not 
collectors or anything.

1-5,

 Our publisher moved to printed hardcovers last year; I think we were one of 
several series affected by the change. So, no more dust jackets. On the plus 
side, it means that libraries that routinely discard the dust jackets aren't 
losing the nice color picture -- typically the only photo we can print in 
color 
in a volume.

Got a pair of real Victorian gold  seed pearl earrings from my parents.
Very pretty  rather dainty.  I shall be the belle of the ball!

Two '50s style dresses, made by my unequal-able mother.

A hand-knit, chunky scarf from my sister, plus hanks of her own hair that I 
will 

make rats from.

A '60s era Reader's Digest reprint of a 1908 Sears  Roebuck catalog from a 
friend.

A visit from my father...oops, not costume related, except he brought the 
dresses.

Pretty darn good Christmas, in my opinion. :)

for christmas, Mom gave me a leaf pendant which is pretty cool, as well 
as 3 bobbin storage boxes. B-i-L gave me some lovely clothes that are a 
size too big. Husband gave me an Elvish scarf from New Zealand - the 
same weave they used for the cloaks in the Lord of the Rings movie; and 
a couple of costume DVDs (North  South and Little Dorrit).
