Going to have to look into the coffin quilts, always interested in quilt history.
A quilter I know in Canada is making a coffin quilt for her husband (he's still alive!), but it is to be placed on his coffin instead of flowers when he dies.
Personally, I like this idea, but since I want to be cremated, I'd like a memorial service with all the quilts I've made and given away to family members hung like a quilt show all around the church.
