Just this minute I got my editor's copy of Medieval Clothing and Textiles vol.
4, so for those of you who have been asking me, I can now verify it exists and
is making its way over the water.
Of particular interest to costumers and re-enactors will be the articles on an
extant 14th-century embroidered linen cap (with construction and embroidery
diagrams); visual attributes of surviving archaeological textiles (with
photos); a reassessment of the Greenland multi-gored gown (with diagrams); and
Henry VIII's quilts. For the full contents, see:

Now, more news: The promised three-volume discounted set of MC&T 1-3 is now
available:
http://www.boydell.co.uk/43834200.HTM
Price is £50 (UK) or $95 (US). That’s roughly 40 percent off list price. For
the contents of the first three volumes, follow the links from this page:

Feel free to pass this post along to other people and lists.
