I'm looking to get a Top Quilt for Christmas. I live in middle TN, so nothing super cold. Lowest I'll usually camp is 30*. I have a 20* New River KAQ. Was thinking about a 20* TQ, but I'm concerned that'll be too warm most of the time. I have a sleeping bag that's in the 40* range that I've been using for a TQ for a while now. I also get chilly some times in cooler weather using that bag. I roast in it if I use it in 65+ degree weather. So My practical range is 30-60 for this quilt. warmer than than I can just take a light blanket. I'm afraid if I move up to a 30* quilt that's pushing it for lower temps. Is a 20* TQ too much for this temp range? Keep in mind it's really humid here in spring and summer so I don't want to sweat. I just have no experience with down quilts and would value some input. I have the option of drawcord and snaps or sewn foot box, curious what you guys think about that as well given that I'm trying to make one quilt work for me most of the time.
Only other consideration is I want it to be able to go to ground if necessary, or use with a pad if I'm tent camping on a rare occasion I'm at a campground.
