Egwa Tawa Dee 129 B3?

Since my collecting interest is very restricted, it’s not often I get to add to my personal collection.   This patch came in the mail to me today.     It was issued last weekend at the Atlanta Trade-o-ree.

Bullions are rather unique items, a synthesis of both wire work and traditional embroidery.     There aren’t very many different ones.     Lodges tend to issue there in small quantities.     Some of them are very scarce.

I think this piece turned out nicely, for the most part.     If I had a list of my favorite bullions this one would probably rank high on it.   Cahuilla 127 B2 probably is still my favorite among the recent bullions.
