you could just use fabric to make the side hem, doesn't have to be made of tubular webbing.

channel would be better. you could even go to joannes and get some light weight polyester ribbon that is ~2" wide and use that.
i just run it through with a coat hanger after it's sewn on, you could put it in there while yopu sew i suppose.
Update...
Went out last weekend...2 nights
set-up -
30 deg Marmot Arroyo used as TQ...DIY UQ (3.7 oz/yd Climashield {good to @35 F as a TQ} 68"x48")...3/8" 20" wide oware CCF pad
Weather -
28-35 F damp at night.
Result-
AMAZING! sweating, hot, flat! I couldn't believe how warm and comfortable I was...best night I've spent in a hammock
I'm a convert to UQs! I have ordered the materials to make 2 more UQs of various temp ranges (both of Climashield).
Thanks for your help Brandon
PS...I had a total of 5 different people stop and ask me about the Blackbird. They all took the time to lay in it and all reported that they loved it. I hope you get some additional business! (I directed them to HammockForums) psst..you need a website!

Agreed! Brandon, any new news on getting that company to sew them for you? I've gotten a LOT of curious onlookers at my setup, and I'd love to be able to direct them to your website where they could place an order right away. This is such a clever design that it needs to be available to more people so they can appreciate what you've done here.
How long until they're sold at REI?
warbonnethammocks.com is available...better get it while you can!
i've got warbonnetoutdoors.com registered, as soon as i get some reliable help to replenish inventory i'll get the site up quick. been busy making stuff lately and need do a couple other things first.
