I made one, but used it on my brothers casket. It was such a comforting feeling when I covered him with it. I felt like I was tucking him in at night, as I had done so many times when he was a baby. I sent it with him. Now I have made one and in the progress of making another cross quilt for mine. I too think flowers on the casket are a terrible waste of money. I would rather my family throw a party.
