Update:
I made an error when measuring my hammock the first go.... it seemed odd that it was so much longer. Upon remeasuring, it was 11' 2" (134") NOT 11' 8" (140") like I stated in the first post.
I managed to get a bit shorter by adjusting the amsteel end loops coming from the hammock. It's now down to a much more respectable 10' 7" (127")
With this new info, I was able to shorten the tarp significantly and came up with a drawing for the flat pattern.

When closed up loosely, the doors are flush with the end of the RL. In extreme weather, I can close them further and have a bit of an undercut shape, like the standard DIYG design. (I haven't added the side pull-outs to the drawing yet, but plan on 2 per side.
Thoughts??
