I am looking at making my first UQ and was wondering what the advantages and disadvantages are of the Karo style and the long baffle style UQs.
Sorry if this is a re-post, but I have not been able to find the information on my question.

I don't know that much about them. I do know that the best down comforters are karo/boxed style.
advantages
-easier to sew (sorter runs)
-MUCH easier to fill with down (dump in entire amount of down Vs weighing each individual chamber)
disadvantages
-harder to lay out and construct (IMO)
-can it be differential cut? maybe...I'm not sure
Mines is a TQ so diff cut wasnt necessary...I think it would be necessary on an UQ
enjoy your project either way
