    What about the center ridge, Mac? Was it minimized at all?

    As I said, there was no cut across the leg at all, but it might have been because the thing is so long!

    Or do you think it would just add complexity without any real payback?

    Thanks.

    Back to the topic.

    With down quilts there is no advantage to complicating darts... Rectangular quilts fit just fine as UQ, especially if they incorporate a center pull on the foot end.

    I may be mistaken but I did not think the OP was asking about down quilts or design there of, but thanks for the input any way.

    Paul,

    There was so much thread drift, when I went back to check the original question and read it it did not state material or design... did not notice the section...that is the trouble with scanning, when time is limited.

    Based on the feedback, I've decided to stick with rectangular for this one. Started the channels for the draw cords last night.

    Since I'm building this one, I'll post further updates in the appropriate sub-category.

    Thanks for the helpful comments.
