I was reading the Down Top Quilt thread and a few comments in there have got me thinking:
Has anyone thought about the idea of making a 4 season quilt but by having one side of the quilt able to open/close to reveal the down, thus giving you an option to add/removed down to fit your trip or season's needs?
Some initial thoughts:
1. What would be the best reclosable seal? ie velcro, press-lock
2. What would be the best way to add/remove accurate amounts of down?
3. Is there a better option? ie layered quilts that attach/detach: two 40* quilts combine to make a ~20* quilt...
I don't have the answers to these but if a good method or solution to this idea is discovered, it could be a game changer in cost and gear use.
What are your thoughts?
