New Quills

That sounds beautiful! Can you post a picture? What were the price ranges for the different jeweled ones?

I still haven't gotten my quill.

We had a few issues with getting all the loaner quills from initiation turned back in, but I thought I had heard that all those issues were resolved.

Then I heard that since there's only one company who can make our badge and they have to cater to all of our chapters, they're extremely backed up with orders. I heard there's like a 6 month waiting period before we get ours. Is that true?

I just want my quill! It's only the plain gold one, but it's so pretty!

I'll post a picture .. If I can figure out how ... if you'll pm me your outside email .. I'll send you the jpeg of the samples.

I paid $155 for 3 stones 10k gold. The prices ranged from $110 to $250. There were white gold with pink stones and pearls and yellow gold with alternating sapphires and peals and all sapphires... all very pretty.

I'm sorry to hear that you'all are having so long to wait for your quills.

That's okay, I suppose that I don't have much use for it over the summer, lol. And if that 6 month waiting period is true, we should have them in time for recruitment! PMing you now...

I'm getting the top right one, in white gold, for birthday and Christmas.

Please pardon the crash, but these jeweled badges are stunning. I think it's wonderful that you have such lovely choices now!

This Alpha Chis is impressed too! Beautiful choices ladies!

Once upon a time, before badges were standardized for my org (until about 1920), there were some gorgeous jewels put into them- sapphires, emeralds, rubies... it was later mandated that we could only have diamonds and pearls.
