Yes, mourning quilts have become popular. I made one for a Long Term Care facility near to me. They have used it so much in 8 years that there is a request for me to make another. First one done in colors of Swedish flag in Log Cabin pattern. The next one will be the same fabrics but in Courthouse Steps. These designs leave plenty of white space to inscribe names of the residents who have passed from the LTC. The quilt is hung back up in their chapel. It is definitely an honor to be doing this service.
