I don't think you should feel bad about not wanting to donate a quilt that only brings $20. Think of it in strictly cash terms and it makes more sense. What if you donated $100, and they threw $80 away and only used $20 for the charity That woud be stupid. Same thing. Our quild made these quilts fro the SPCA, and they're planning on an auction. I think someone spoke to them about a reserve as almost 30 quilters were involved in the project, so you can imagine the value! (The pictures are before they left me, so they still get a brown border, binding and quilting.) I made a wall quilt for an elementary school auction that only got $25, and the woman who got it actually called me an apologized that it only brought such a little amount because she knew it was worth more. That helped my feelings a lot!
