RE: [h-cost] OT a farewell - other email lists
I belong to some period-specific lists, and I plan to stay on this one as well. Although it covers time periods and places that I'm not doing, h-Costume keeps me in touch with a larger group of people who are like-minded. Research, finding fabrics, challenges in fit and construction are common to any era of costume. Learning about eras on either side of "my" time period is useful, and I'm just plain curious about all eras. On this list, I can read about the accomplishments of others things I would miss if I stuck to lists of one particular time period.

RE: [h-cost] OT a farewell - other email lists
Geez, Lynn wrote me offline and reminded me of the other reason one is on these lists - to help others. (Embarrassed Smiley) I guess I'll be here for awhile. As to Sylivia's question: The other lists that come to mind are mostly on Yahoo - Yahoo has a whole slew of them. If you are not familiar with Yahoo, email me offline for some tips on finding and deciding whether to join a group. http://groups.yahoo.com/group/GermanRenCostume/ http://groups.yahoo.com/group/TheRenaissanceTailor/ There is another group of them - someone else will be able to direct you specifically because I can't find them myself - they are hosted by an email "server" that is something like MEDCO.
