[h-cost] Costume Con 28: Photos: Historic Masquerade
I have made a Facebook page for The Costume Gallery Websites. Here you can keep up with live updates and what are works in progress. Go to www.facebook.com and search for The Costume Gallery Websites. Make sure to include the word THE in your search. This area will not to replace anything on The Costume Gallery Websites except the Library's update area. Today, on the Facebook page, I added sneak peaks of the photos from the Historic Masquerade from Costume Con 28. If you are new to Facebook, you can click on the WALL or PHOTOS tabs. The photo area, click on the 1st album for the Historic Masquerade and see all 16 entries in this event. If you have a Facebook account you can leave a comment under the photo. I am a Southern girl at heart. So if you do not have anything nice to say, please refrain from doing so. The historic masquerade photos include brief details and awards on Facebook. I am going back to working on Historic Masquerade section on our websites. This will include detailed high resolution images and when available video. Enjoy!

Re: [h-cost] textile pattern of Charles de Blois pourpoint
Hi, Zuzana - I embarked on the same project many moons ago so I have lots of up close pictures and did some enhancing in a graphics program and a bunch of other information. Unfortunately, I am not at home and won't be for some time - Also, my sister who is a graphic artist offered to help me clean the images up - I am with her right now ... so maybe we could just get 'er done! I'd be interested in what you come up with and perhaps could share the cost of the set up. Which fabric company were you going to work with? If you are interested contact me off list (saragrace.knauf @ gmail .com) Saragrace On Wed, May 12, 2010 at 12:36 PM, Zuzana Kraemerova zkraemer...@yahoo.comwrote: Hi all, I want to make a reproduction fabric of the Charles de Blois pourpoint. The problem is that I cannot find any detailed picture that would clearly show the pattern. The best I found so far is: http://www.musee-des-tissus.com/en/02_02/col06/tis07/ima_2.gif Does anybody have a better picture?

[h-cost] Fabulous web site
Check out this incredible site for 360 degree close ups of these very detailed figures from Burgundy in the early 1400s: http://www.themourners.org/ For those of you close enough to NYC, the show is at the Met until May 23, though according to reviews you may well see more detail at this web page than if you go see the actual pieces (viewers can't get that close! (And yes, I was not only given permission to share the web address, but explicitly asked by representatives of the organizers to do so.)
