I think that your values are correct. When we do a silent auction, people start the bidding at anything they want and others bid them up from there so there isn't even a starting value or a stated value. Have fun.
I've given it some thought, and what I'm going to do is bid on my own two rag quilts. I'll start at $25 and if anyone wants them, they'll simply have to go higher. I may be alone in this, but I can not let something of some value go for dirt. I'll bid on my own donation before I do that. Simple math----------I'd rather give $25 in a bid than donate a piece that I consider worth $50 that goes for $10 |

It is always difficult to set a price on an item we have made. I made a wall hanging quilt for a Westie Rescue fundraiser. I had taken a Scottie pattern using plaids and tweaked the dog making it white. I asked $25.00 for starting bid and was delighted when it sold for almost $100.00. I have learned from eBay to sometimes set the price lower to get people to start to bid on an item. I believe the boxer quilt will do very well because you have people who love boxers attending the event. Wish you both good luck !!
