I agree with the Raffle option, you can get many people to part with $1 to $5 easily especially if it is a nice quilt. I donate a queen size quilt every year to our local Relay for Life and they usually end up in the $1,500 - $2,000 range but that is also because they are dedicated to taking it to different places for display over a couple of months timeframe. I normally will not donate to an auction although I have made exceptions when talking to the people asking (someone I knew) and they convinced me that it would go for a decent price. It was for a charity for a state school near me and it did end up going for a decent price and then the person donated it back to the school for use so I will definitely do that again.
