    Third time a charm, Top Quilt

    Just finished my third Top Quilt. Each one gets better. 1st one was thin, 2ed one was short I think this one right on. at 54 in across the top, 42 in across the bottom and 79 in long, almost 3in. of loft The size should be right on for me. came in at 24 oz. I think I'll call it Blue Bird. 1st shot is loft, 2ed, 3ed layed flat, last 2 with foot box closed.

    Nice!

    What did you use to close the footbox - snaps, omnitape, ties?
