Since my daughters injury so many people have come together and had fundraisers for her. Peolpe have donated perfect and not so perfect items to auction and all of them went. I think you are being to hard on yourself. I REALLY think you should give it to your friend if you feel it will not bring that much money if it is auctioned have a raffle that is what they did with some of the items for my daughter, people might not have spent $50 on a not so perfect quilt but if you sell raffles for $5 each you only need 10 people to buy a raffle. Funny thing some of the items that were perfect brought in less money then a not so perfect one with a raffle. No matterr what amount of money they would get it is a blessing every little bit counts. I know I am talking from experience.
