Sure is - I hadn't sewn anything since 7th grade home ec, then I hopped on my wife's machine and my first project was a two-layer hammock that my kids still use. I fooled around with some scraps for about 20 minutes before starting...that's it.
And keep in mind that it doesn't have to be perfect...it's not like cabinetry or anything. Just stick it together and put a seam on it...it'll work until you get good enough to make it pretty. And still have you tons of money!

Got to love bumping the old threads.
Like was said, will work with any synthetic sleeping bags. You could do it with a down bag, but I didn't want to deal with the hassle of the down. The bag I used didn't have much insulation to it. A very thin layer inbetween 2 nylon layers.
Pretty straight forward project, just cut and sew.
