Might be morbid but some people might really appreciate it. Could always make up a few and take them to funeral homes.
A funeral home wouldn't take them because this casket comes like that from the manufacturer. They have nothing to do with it. Some could buy one or two to offer to family members, but no more than that. I was reading that the trend is growing for people to have quilts hanging more than flowers, but is not a big trend yet. Some places offer embroidered blankets for the survivors. More expensive than flowers.
