I've never bought a raffle ticket for a quilt for more than $1 each. I attended the Mid-Atlantic Quilt show in Hampton Roads VA this spring, and just attended the Quilt show at Dulles Expo Center. None of the quilt groups sell their quilt raffle tickets for more than that. Cabin Branch Quilt group was raffling a quilt at the Dulles Show at $1 a ticket and donating the proceeds to Wounded Warriors. Another point to remember, give yourself time to sell the tickets. Most raffles sell for about six months before the drawing. The drawing for the tickets I bought at the Dulles show from the Cabin Branch group will be held on March 11, 2012. Another group that I bought tickets from in February at Hampton Roads won't draw until December 5, 2011.
