How about just making a double layer (gathered and lashed ends) and not sewing the layers together? 1.9 upper layer and 1.1 lower layer.
The bottom layer could be made a few inches longer or just rely on "pulling the ends" of the upper layer prior to lashing to shorten it. It would take some experimenting to get it right. It still may compress the insulation too much toward the ends.
