You can get a Bishop bag without a sewing machine. Just find a stuff sack that your hammock and underquilt fit in, prefferably waterproof since it is your insulation. Then what I did was sew 1 inch sqaure pieces of webbing on the inside and outside of where the hole will be for reinforcement. Then take a tent stake and heat it up. I used my parent's gas stove top. Once the stake is hot poke it through the center of the webbing square through the bag, and out the other webbing square. It fuses the edges so it doesn't fray, and is really simple. Hand sew the webbing only takes a few minutes.
