Glad you like it! Yes, might as well drum up some interest -- but remember
the list I just posted is for the volume slated for release in May 2008.
Some people may not yet have looked over our brand-new 2007 volume, so you
would do me a favor if you included info on that, too. It has papers on
these topics:
Anglo-Saxon household textiles
Anglo-Saxon clerical vestments
Saints in Opus Anglicanum embroidery on vestments
Color preferences in Flemish luxury woollens
Wool finishing
Symbolism of rich garments in a Spanish religious story
Fingerloop braiding
Medieval textile bookmarkers
Children's clothes in Tudor England
...that last one written by h-cost's very own Melanie Schuessler.
You'll find the contents of Volume 3 listed in more detail here:

And the entire series here:

Since you'll be posting to SCA lists, you might want to note that each of
these volumes includes some authors who are SCA members who have made the
leap to academic publishing, and that each volume includes at least one
article that reflects the use of reconstruction as a research tool.
