It's a beautiful quilt. While you don't have any twin beds, why not put it on a bed you do have, either as a topper with one underneath to cover the sides of the bed. Or under the bedspread and just use it.

If you don't want it ... ITA with the others, a donation back for another raffle would be a great offering. Even better, if you could give it back to the same group that it came from when you won it.

Good Luck!

With all that handwork done on it I would ask at least $100 or up. And the 2nd picture of your husband and dog is just adorable!

Please take your quilt out of the plastic bag and store it in a old pillow case, or on a quest bed and keep it covered with other quilts or bedspread or a cedar chest the idea is to keep it from the light so it does not fade. If you have quilts folded and stored it's a good idea to refold them every three or four months. Quilts need to be able to breath. I have worked with many appraisers and storing quilts is always a topic they cover.
Just thought I would pass it on.
Thanks

What a beautiful quilt. I would keep it and display it as a wall hanging or hang on a quilt rack. Too beautiful to sell or give away. No one will take care of it like you will.

Gorgeous quilt... lucky you! But please take it out of the plastic bag, air it, then when you refold it, put in in a 100% cotton pillowcase, NOT a plastic bag.

Its beautiful. Take it to an appraiser and see if you can get a good idea from them.
