Thanks everyone for the encouragement. I'm going to have a hard time parting with this quilt. It is truly one of the best I've done so far (with a lot of help from my friends).
I've received everyone's checks and put ticket stubs in the mail, emailed, etc. There are about 150 tickets left. If we sell them all earlier, I will draw the ticket earlier. Looks like my chances of winning are dwindling as others buy more tickets. But it is for such a good cause. I get a little attached to my quilts as I make them. :)
