only do this if you will not find out later the outcome! I stopped donating quilts to functions for auction type fundraisers because i got tired of spending $75-$125 on something for it to be (given away) for $15-$20...and the people in charge- grinning about that! it can be very frustrating! if it simply doesn't matter & you have no desire to find out how it went go for it-but if your friend may feel the need to share the outcome- ... i'd decline & donate some $.
