As a test I took some cheap fabric and made a 24x17" UQ frame to get the feel of things. No filling so I can't finish it but I think I got the gist of the sewing and folds down. I originally bought the sewing machine to make a hammock about a year ago and spent a considerable amount of time making dual layer stuff sacks and padded pouches.
I have a piece of flat poly batting that I'm going to cut and lay on the top layer of rip stop to add some smoothness to one side and stuff it with some sort of insullation. I was thinking poly batting but that's a bit tough to evenly distribute.
Was going to try and make it as fancy as possible but this is for my hackmock so I'm just going for it. I'll build a really nice one later once I have the theory down and get the size and hang right.
