I forgot to mention - with the second quilt that I made for the Susan G. Komen Breast cancer quilt, it was a sampler and a daughter bought the 5 for $20.00 and she won. But the best part was and what literally brought tears to my eyes was that it was for her mother who was undergoing chemotherapy for Breast Cancer. Advertising, having it on display for several weeks to give people a chance to see it, to look at it several times (mine was in a drug store - hanging in full view) and people will come back and even buy more (they did that, too). It isn't the winner of the quilt that is important, it is the money raised for the charity that is the most important and the most valuable to people that are helped by it. Edie
