Beautiful quilt Missy!!!!!!!!
Every auction I have been at, they will start at one price, and will keep lowering the starting bid price until they have an entry bid. From that point the bidding goes up. Many bidders will wait for the drop, they don't want to start at the higher price. Ebay is different, you have a start price and people either bid or not.
You could always have them put a reserve price on the quilt so it doesn't go to low. But generally people will bid higher than normal for a good cause.
Anyway, it is a beautifu quilt. I think the Log Cabin is my favorite pattern.
