So I'm getting ready to order materials for a Climashield TQ. What I'm wondering is if I should make a single 5oz TQ or make two 2.5oz quilts and then nest them when it's going to be colder? I'd like to be able to handle temps down to ~30*F but also be comfortable at summer temps when I do most of my camping.
I'm aware that there have been several threads about nesting quilts and that it works but you won't necessarily get cumulative temp ratings due to compression of the inner quilt. Does this apply as much if you're using synthetics vs down? If I go the two quilt route I'd deliberately make one a few inches larger to help prevent compression of the inner TQ.
