I made this quilt to be raffled at my husband’s family reunion. Hope to raise money toward the next year. Not sure how to do it as I have never had any experience with raffling one. Would hate for it to go for $30.00…. because of the money invested and time.

I have a lady that machine quilts all of my quilts Her quilting covered my lack of experiments. This was my first to place on point and was a challenge for me. It is a teal color but looks blue from the photo. The embroidery designs are Jacobean flowers and I used teal thread.

that's a beautiful quilt. anybody would be lucky to win it. :P :P :P

Decide how much you want the quilt to earn toward the reunion fund. divide it by the number of households who will be represented at the reunion. whatever the raffle ticket price comes to, remind everybody that it's for family, for fun, and for a one-of-a kind work of fabric art.

It's very pretty!! The embroidered flowers are perfect. Sorry I've never done a raffle without selling a lot of tickets. Maybe instead, do a silent auction, putting a minimum bid.
