Gold and White Challenge

This quilt will be my entrance to the QGGH  (Quilt Guild of Greater Houston) challenge for 2026.
The Guild is celebrating its Gold Jubilee and the challenge is to make a quilt with only white and gold in it. 
I use the pattern from the book Gemology. It is all paper pieced using solid colors. It was not easy to find the gold colors. I would have preferred to have a few different ones; but I like it now.
The quilt is 55.5 inches square and quilted with a very difficult to use pale gold thread using an edge to edge design.
This was a challenge in so many ways. I learnt a lot by making this quilt. 
I will not point out the problems; no use in doing that.
The stones represent the many cuts of the Topaz.
