My pumpkin wallhanging was sent to my Mom for her 84th birthday without any gold put on it. I took photos but can not find them on the computer. It must have thrown them someplace and so far, I haven't been able to locate them. I am almost finished FMQ the one I am making for our own home. THAT one will have gold on it.
Dotty, your gold creation would make a terrific evening tote.
Suzie, will have to put my thinking cap on for October's challenge.
So sorry to hear of your loss. I cannot even imagine going through what you have experienced.
