    Seattle area shop with gear esp UQ?

    I know this is a terrible first real post, but I didn't see anything under the search including advanced search through Google. Sorry if this has been covered, is in the wrong area, or is somehow wrong in any manner....

    Basically, here is the story:
    My mother is making me an underquilt because her sewing skills are awesome and mine suck, so I called for a favor. I would do better with a dull hatchet and 16 penny nail I think... /sigh

    ANYWAY

    She is having a hard time picturing the actual item and would like to see a couple before she starts. Although the videos help and are guiding her through the construction, they don't give her that hands on inspection she would like. Unfortunately, I can't find anywhere in the Seattle area that would have them so she could look at a few.

    I tried REI already but they only have ENO hammocks, tarps and suspension. Other than that, I am at a loss.

    Thanks for the help!!!!

    You can also just order the shell from underquilts.com and add your filling, sew the end, and voila!
