    First shot at a topquilt

    So now that I've got a bunch of UQ's under my belt I decided to give a top quilt a try. I used Argon 90 inside and out, and thanks to Wilderness Logics 12 ounces of 850 fp down gets me a solid 20° rating.






    Length is 78" and total weight is 19.3 ounces!

    Thank you! My next one is going to be the opposite, black inside and orange outside. Will probably make a matching uq. I bought 3 pounds of down and a bunch of Argon 90 to play with
