I recently made a quilt for a church raffle and it went over well with a traditional block with an added applique to the center of each block. A color theme is well received. It sold for $250, I understand. I got different information from different people. It was a silent auction. It was a soft turquoise with mauves and and muted teals. I have also done a quilt that was a scrappy quilt. That sold for over $600. Again it was traditional blocks. Both of them were queen size quilts. It really didn't matter to me what the auction made from them. The joy was in making the quilt. Seeing it on display and watching the response of people looking at it was the reward.
