    Did you end up ordering during the sale? I just placed an order for a Stealth 50º top quilt (from stock rather than custom) and will post impressions once it arrives.

    I do the same when backpacking. For bikepacking the TQ and UQ go into a 13L dry bag on a handlebar harness. That's for 20º quilts, I'd guess true winter down quilts could fit in the same 13L bag but...
