    MEMBRANE 66 durability

    As I approach the inevitable time of embarking on a DIY set of quilts I came across the MEMBRANE 66 fabric from ripstopbytheroll to use for the body. To make an ultralight set, I would want to use this fabric as both the outer and inner layer. My only fear is durability.

    For anyone who has used this fabric, especially in an underquilt, what can you say about the toughness of it? I'm speaking more about the abrasion resistance than tensile strength, but any information would be helpful.

    Ive used it and its pretty tough for how light and thin it is. Quilt shouldn't be seeing much in the way of abrasion is how i feel.
