For my first donation quilt for a breast cancer fundraiser, I made the "Quilt of Many Ribbons" -
http://www.humblebeequiltworks.com/QofMR%20Final.pdf - It was auctioned off for $500...to a breast surgeon, who has it displayed in his office. This year's donation quilt is a Triple Irish Chain, with embroidered flowers in the center squares. I hope it does well. Good luck!
