    DIY KARO Top Quilt

    Hi all,
    Just wanted to share my new DIY Karo top quilt. It is made of Dutch argon 67 and Rip Stop By The Role membrane 10. I have approx 14 oz of 800fill power down from Dutch with 2.5 inch baffles. Take a look!!

    Looks good to me.

    KARO baffle TQs do not seem to be as popular as the full baffled models. I have two KARO TQ's from EE and they work just fine.
    I am still 18 but with 52 years of experience !

    Looks good. That's probably the mildest taper I've ever seen, appears less in the final product than the pattern/drawing.

    The tape doesn’t lie. However the quilt did shrink up a bit more than I imagined it would.

    Great Job. Curious to know what you think after you test in the elements? Would you mind if I use that design and attempt to pull one off for myself? I am thinking it will be a little different, but I don't like to just take anything without asking even if it is the Internet.
