She told him that wouldn't even pay for the fabric.


This is so true of non-quilters. What a great idea to have the quilt appraised before the raffle. This might prove helpful in selling tickets. Just a thought that maybe more guilds should have their raffle quilts valued by an appraiser and include the write up to the winner.

Wow the pattern is amazing. You should also make up a pattern and sell that. I would buy the pattern in a second. The quilt is beautiful.
