I've been trying a couple different designs for a DIY UQ, and my problem is that I want the insulation to cover me no matter which diagonal I lie on. It seems that if I make the UQ wider to do this that it ends up saggy and not sealing nicely, but if I make it narrower, than I have to shift the UQ when I change diagonals. For reference, I just made a fleece prototype about 50" wide x 72" long with darts. It worked about as well as anything, but I still have to shift it if I change sides. My thought is to maybe make it a bit wider and attach it to the hammock edges so it doesn't flop or sag. Any helpful thoughts? Is there anyone else out there who moves around as much as I do and has solved this problem?
