    Under quilt width?

    I have a Speer Peapod that I really like and have been happy with. Recently I have been reading allot. Here about 2/3 and 3/4 length under quilts. I believe that I am ready take the plunge on a 3 season down under quilt. I have been eyeballing Leigh's 2/3 length 3 season under quilt. That is being sold here by Hangnout. It's size is listed as 42" X 48". I am 6'3" weighing in at approx 220 lbs. I would be using the quilt with my new WBBB double 1.7. From what I have read it will work well with the WBBB. My main question is. Will the 42" width and 48" length be roomy enough for me? Or do I need a wider longer under quilt?

    PM sent answering questions specific to Leigh's quilt. I think it really is a decision of whether full length or shorter UQ is best for you. The couple inches difference on different vendors shorter quilts will not matter that much.

    PM answered, but I might catch some flak over the spelling of my forum name

    My sincere apology for that. Chalk it up to one to many refreshing beverages! I took tomorrow off and decided to have a few. Oops!
