I agree, quilter1942, with you. If "it doesn't work out", it isn't the guild's business, is it? Doesn't the quilt now have a new owner? Are these raffles conducted with the understanding the the winner must keep the quilt in her own home? Just think how much material and fun she could get out of the $600 (or more) she might be able to get from the quilt? !! Even as one said, if I could trade a raffle ticket for something I could sell and then go on a short trip with my husband, I would consider that a great bargain and a fantastic win!
But I wouldn't tell my guild about it. Not one word would be spoken and I wouldn't sell it around my friends in the guild.
