Can you write on a quilt already quilted or do you just need the top or blocks then quilt?

I donated a quilt for a raffle a number of years ago, it raised $1,ooo, definitely the way to go.

You can use permanent fabric marking pens to write on a completed quilt. It works great...we recently did a memory quilt for our guild president, and everyone wrote on the completed quilt. It came out great!!

Our church has a ladies dessert each year and the ticket cost a $15 grocery store gift card donated to church benevolence fund. I also donate 2 quilts they raffle off. Each brings about $150-175 cash for the church fund as well. The church then uses the money to help familes in the community.

In Michigan you have to get a license from the state to sell raffle tickets. Recently they have changed some regulation and it takes 3 times as long to get the license. Our guild does a raffle quilt every year for monies to donate to charity in our community. We usually make over $2000. Very good money maker.
