    First night at 8 degrees!

    OK, I know that's not cold for Shug, but it's the coldest I've done, and I have my new, beautiful Habanero 0 degree under-quilt to thank for it. I asked for an extra ounce of down, and I swear George gave me two! And, look at the loft on that draft collar. Thanks very much, George, for such a great quilt.

    That looks like some quality work there. I can't wait to get mine!

    Very nice, planning to order my own 10° Habanero in the very near future! Did you get the head end draft collar? And is that the Moss Green? If so, is that pic an accurate depiction of the true color? Thanks, and congrats on the new UQ!

    I've yet to experience a single cool night let alone cold night in my LocoLibre quilts. George simply does good work. The wait hurts but order in the off season and the wait isn't nearly as painful

    The outer is lime green; the inner is burnt orange. There are draft collars at both ends. As to color, it looks accurate to me.

    Thanks!

    Had my 30 degree Carolina Reaper and 20 degree Dragon's Breath out Saturday night at 28 degrees and a slight breeze and was as comfy as could be. I had fleece pants and jacket on standby, but didn't need anything other than my capilene baselayer. Woke up once with my nose cold, though. George makes good stuff.
