I honestly don't recommend doing what I did purely for the extra overfill. George fills his quilts right. I'm very happy with all my quilts but if I was going to order another quilt I would just do the 10 or maybe a 20(cold sleeper) degree buffer and not worry about overfill besides MAYBE an ounce or two - (even with mega baffle sizes of a 0 degree). Don't overthink it like I did. I got a little too preoccupied with overfill when I was making my first quilt orders but I no longer think it is necessary from what I have seen at Loco Libre (UGQ as well, based on my friends' quilts). Save your money and just order the right temperature for your situation in my opinion.
The pictures don't convey just how well made and great these quilts are. They look much better in person. Every little push in the fabric in the pictures above isn't because it is under filled, they look that way because I was handling the quilts and squeezing them in and out of stuff sacks.
