That is wonderful! I have  Costume in Detail checked out from the library right 
now and it is definitely on my want list. My hubby gave me the Madeleine 
Vionnet book by Betty Kirke. I, too, am burbling with delight. Yeah for 
husbands who listen!

My husband's gifts to me included Dawn Luckham's Regency stays pattern, 
a book titled _Women, Production, and Patriarchy in Late Medieval 
Cities_ (which contains information on textile production), and a bottle 
of Ralph Lauren Notorious perfume (plus a bunch of different perfume 
samples).

Mine was a more subdued squee... Santa brought me a Rowenta garment steam 
cleaner, which I did ask for. While my good Rowenta steam iron is wonderful, 
it's hard to use it to steam those historical garments once made up. This will 
help me keep those hard to clean garments, and even my drapes, nice and wrinkle 
free. I just have to figure out where to put it.

I also got some music cds, and an amazon gift card which I used to buy some 
more books, tho not historical ones for a change. I want more modern clothes, 
although I am leaning to historically inspired modern clothes along with some 
classic ones that I get to make to fit my more mature body. Nothing more 
annoying than slacks that just don't fit or hang right.

I hope everyone's holiday season was merry, bright, and full of joy. And have a 
happy New Year!
