How pretty, and how neat to have so many color combo choices!

These aren't the only color combinations that will be available; it was just a sample photo sent out to show some of the possibilities if the legislation was approved. National Council will be voting at its meeting later this month on the specific jewels allowed plus any restrictions (like no "pink + blue", which was mentioned in the memo as a likely one), and then we'll all be able to order them in whatever order and combination we want, and that Herff Jones is willing to produce.

I'm all about the dark and light blue sapphires in white gold!!

I'm so happy. I would really like to get on with light and dark blue stones. I asked my boyfriend if he could get it for me for Christmas. Although I would have to order it myself.

ooh... now I know what I'm saving up for! I'm not even sure which one yet since they all are so beautiful!

I always thought the simpler badges, like AXiD and Pi Phi were the prettiest. You can see what it is and it needs no explanation. I wonder if members/alums will be able to trade in their badges for an upgrade.

They're soo pretty! Hmm, how am I going to talk the husband into one of these without waiting for my legacy to join? I'm so excited that we're finally getting colored stones!

Headquarters just posted the new Quills on the HQ web page.. pictures and ordering

if someone wants to give me $500 I would love the diamond quill! :) There are so many to choose from!

I am so throughly excited about all of this! As soon as HQ announced it offically on the web I ordered the alternating Sapphire and Aquamarine in gold. I always thought that would be such a pretty combo and it is!!! I can't wait to get it!!!!!!! :oD

I just got my first Quill!(Just the plain gold one) So exciting! It's too bad these new ones came out THIS year though, and not last. Oh well, hopefully I can get the Sapphire and Aquamarine in the future...

Camera Phones juts dont do justice for small details.... BUT I LOVE MY NEW BADGE!

It's 10K white gold one with alternating dark and light blue sapphires. The one on the AXiD website only shows yellow gold.

ooh I can see the blue now, I thought they were diamonds at first. So pretty!
