    It's yours to do whatever your little heart desires. If it's not your color/design whatever, go ahead and sell it without a second thought. Whoever buys it will do so because they love it. The Guild made their profit.

    It is your quilt, but it may be wise to just not mention you plan on selling it. People get upset and why get them upset, if you could just not mention this to them.

    And I agree, too. Just because you won it, you don't have to keep it.

    It's your quilt. Good for you if you can sell it....more money to buy more raffle quilt tickets to support more guilds.

    Congratulations on your win and best wishes with the sale. It's yours to do with as you wish.

    I would sell it in a heartbeat. It is yours now - you can do as you wish with it. I won one in similar circumstances and donated it to our local senior citizens group so that they could raise money and I don't feel guilty in the least. You are not causing harm to anyone.

    You should sell it to someone. Then the right person will have the right quilt. Congrats on your win!

    unless you need the money, the suggestion to give it to another group to raffe is a good suggestion.
