After many years of purchasing quilt raffle tickets to support quilt guilds and other organizations, I finally won a raffle quilt made by a local quilt guild. It is lovely and beautifully made but I really have no use for it. It is enormous and the colors don't match anything in my house. I have been quilting for more than 40 years and already have quilts everywhere in my home.
It is very heavy. My husband and I are seniors and I have medical problems that sometimes make it hard for me to get in and out of bed. Should I sleep under this quilt I would have difficulty rolling over.

I will attempt to photograph it and post the photo.

My question is would it be "bad" of me to sell it?

I already asked my friend who is a member of the guild that made it if her friends, several of who I have met, would be mad at me if I sold it? She said they would be disappointed. She also said that when they drew my name she told them I probably wouldn't keep it. I know that she worked on the quilt and did some of the applique. It is machine quilted by a local longarmer who also does beautiful work.

I am thinking of asking at least $600. I would appreciate your oponions.
