Congrats Liza and Darrin! Many other beautiful pens, tough choices.
Of the few Blingless Harvest pens I've made this is probably the nicest to my eyes. Though not enough to be at the top this year I'll be back!

Nice pens all - gives beginners like me something to strive towards. @Fred Bruche someday I will attempt a Blingless Harvest kit; looks fantastic. @Darrin, what is the kit you used? The waves in the gold sections really complement the contrast between the heart and sapwood.
