I broke out the sewing machine and cobbled together a rough prototype of what an Insultex 2/3 UQ might look like.
I used 2 layers of insultex and 2 layers of 1.1 ripstop. This version might be a few inches too small on both length and width for a true stand alone UQ, but I intend to use it in conjunction with a down UQ.
The quilt measures 36 X 47. I cut the fabric 37.5 X 48.5 and double rolled the fabric onto the Insultex. I did not roll the Insultex into the hem as it gets bulky real quick. I dog eared the corners about an inch back and added a grosgrain loop at each corner.
Materials needed:
3 yards of 1.1 ripstop
3 yards of Insultex
2 ft grosgrain
This is really rough and I didn't take my time to make it pretty....
Total weight = 7 oz. Here's the obligatory pics:
