Thanks for the thoughts ... I too would like to have a little more freedom on the vibrancy of colours.
The Passage Quilts are used when the body is removed from the HH by the undertakers, to cover the body, so that the loved ones last memories are not of the deceased being wheeled out in a body bag on a gurney.
I appreciate their desire for subtlety of the quilt. The idea is that the last memory be of the deceased at peace and in comfort created by the quilt, and not have the focus become the quilt. And that they are covered in a quilt, rather than a lasting memory of them leaving in a harsh body bag on a cold gurney.
