    my wife's fajita hammock quilts.

    We swapped our mattress out for hammocks 4 months ago now. its been trial and error getting the correct bedding. but I think we found it! Melissa made the perfect hammock quilts. they have a 'feet pocket' helping keep the quilt on the hammock. You lay on the quilt, tuck feet in the pocket. then there are two side flaps. bring the shorter one up around you. Then the longer one from the other side. Head also has a "pillow" of sorts. complete opposite of the feet pocket is the head pillow. just not a pocket. Wrap yourself up Like a fajita I suppose? Perfect!
    There is a wool blanket in the Center. then sheet coverings on top and bottom of that. Sleep like a baby now

    Awesome idea. Love the quilts too. What do you set your thermostat to at night?

    What hammocks do you have there?
    It's not the boulders that throw us off balance, it's the pebbles beneath our feet

    They are Nicaraguan. our first try at the full time hanging hammocks for inside. I really don't think we will be changing the type of hammock for that anytime soon. we may of just got lucky and got it right on first attempt? I have a Hennessy, it will be for outside or camping. It all started when i was just testing my HH inside to get prepped for the upcoming summer. before we knew it. Mattresses were GONE! lol.

    Really nice setup. An actual, true to the word, quilt. Seems as if the quilt would be great for wrapping up on the couch as well. Thanks for sharing.
