So i decided to make a "top quilt," or in my case a backpacking quilt as i do not hammock, yet. I used 9 oz. of 850 fill power down for a 2" loft on 18 4" baffles. The down was from Wilderness Logics in .5 oz increments, so fairly simple at .5 oz a baffle. Shell is 1.1 oz ripstop. Final dimensions are 48" x 68" with no tapering. Took me the better part of 2 days to complete so i am not sure if i will be doing one for the wife anytime soon If i do, i will not be doing so many baffles in an attempt to save me from weighing out the down!
