    I usually express it as a peaceful quilt.

    Most monochromatic quilts I see strike me as "sophisticated elegance". I love them, but do not make them. Monochromatic is not something I have learned to do well, yet.

    The words that I have heard used are "low volume".

    I like Wannabe Quiltn's answer. I like the "peaceful" quilt. That sounds soothing to me.

    "Pop" is not for ever quilt. Sometimes quite, soft, gentle and peaceful are just what you want in a quilt.
