I am a fairly experienced seamstress and love to DIY BUT this is one project that intimidates me because of the down. I have looked for used quilts but they seem rare. I am debating between three options; make a set from scratch, UpCycle a set from a used down sleeping bag, or buy from a cottage vendor. I am leaning towards the sleeping bag option but I am concerned about weight and time spent. Also, bags with low temp ratings are running close too $100 on eBay.
I have car camped my whole life but I want to start backpacking so weight is a concern. I need to be frugal as I have sooooo much gear to buy. Thanks for any help you can offer!
