Sorry I posted this under pictures and I guess should have posted here, sorry for the double post. I wanted to know what value I should list for the quilt below. It is approx. 60 x 80 large throw and has hand stitched counted crosstitched in some of the blocks. It is being donated and will be part of a raffle for the Houston Food Bank. I have only been quilting for about 1 1/2 years and only been on this board since July so I need help!

If you are looking for a retail value for purpose of the raffle, I would go to etsy and look for quilts of similiar size and work involved and do an average of the selling prices you see listed. It is not a perfect method but it will provide something for you to base on valuation on.
The quilt is very cute and I hope the raffle raises lots of money.

Are you asking value for selling it or charity donation on taxes for donating. If for taxes for can only claim the cost of materials. Labor you perform is not considered a charity donation. Wish it was I donate 10-12 quilts per year.
