Suggestions on Sleepingbag Mod (The Bunny Burrito)
What you see below is a quick sketch of a Christmas Stocking shaped sleeping bag - minus the Bugs Bunny/Brachs promotional graphic that appears on the front.
Here's my predicament, if I mod the bag matching the curve of the hammock the zipper will be on bottom. If I flip the bag with zipper on top, the toe now points down.
With zero experience in this, I have no idea of the difficulties encountered without a zipper for entry or exit. Should I leave as is, letting the zipper sit at the bottom and just pull the pod/sleeve up over the hammock or is moving the zipper to the other side a better idea?
ANY questions, suggestions or brainstorms will be greatly appreciated as I'm going to need this done in a weeks time.
Wish me luck!

For my 10 year olds first few cold nights, we used an older camp style sleep bag in the manner you are talking. And for the same reasons. Our experience was no matter how he started with the zipper it would navigate itself to the bottom by morning anyway. With your drawings I have feeling it would do the same for you. This is not a bad thing. You cn get in with zipper up settle in and letthe bag naturally fall into place.
The only issue we ran into was the bag drooping more than the hammock thus air gaps. Might suggest a light weight fleece bag used traditionally in the hammock as well.
