Way to make an entrance! That's some awesome looking quilts you got there. Welcome to Hammock Forums. I like how you finished the neck drawstring.

I brought up the subject of using snaps not to long ago. How are they working for you?

Nice! Are you selling these, or did you make several for yourself?

1 layer of the 5.0 xp?

Beautiful work! I can tell that once I "borrow" my sister's sewing machine, it's going to be getting a heck of a work-out. Seeing all of these items is truly inspirational.

Wondered that myself. I've seen you sell them over at whiteblaze.
Nice quilts.

Thanks for the warm welcome, I know Fanatic Fringer from around the forums. How are you! Hey I have some exciting news. The company Fanatic Fringe is going to make me a backpack to my specifications since my last trek to the Amazon Jungle called for a smaller pack.

About the quilts. The snaps are very light and work well at least over the year I have been using them. Smaller than the snaps nunatak uses. It is a 2.5 oz layer in those pictured. I will be making a 5 oz quilt too. As for now anyone wanting any quilts or to talk shop can email or pm me. I started making them for me and a hiking partner then the calls for them started. I will be going public soon.

small world, we spoke before on bushcraft living.

quick question BtD, do your quilts taper from the head to foot evenly, or is the taper from knee to foot only?

btw.. welcome to the world of cottage gear making. I do sil tarps for ground sleeping (oh no!) but havent mentioned it here because, well, you know. :o

Wink! got ya!
