Fabric channeling - last Sean to see then pull inside out and hand finish the 18"-20" I left open to pull it through. Wish me some luck fellas.
This stupid bugger is so thick it's really hard to work with.

All right here she is in her almost finished glory. First pic should illustrate it all. nearly 4" of loft around the perimeter and nearly 3" of loft more towards the center. I have made some errors in the channeling - mainly how it got all sewn in and I will have to repair that and install the primary suspension and the end cinches but she is nearly done and ready to try tomorrow. Trip will be at nearly 10,000 ft mere miles from the top of Cameron Pass here in CO. 1/15-1/19. Will film and give results on my return.
As far as things I would do differently - I wouldn't try doing this late at night I made a lot of errors simply not imagining it or drawing it out first. Ohh well. Live and learn

What fabric did you use?

That's a very good question. I forgotten. I'll have to check that out when I get home. I know when you look on rip stop by the rolls website It's one of their breathable fabrics that's calendarized on one side. One of the low weight varieties.

Looks nice and lofty. How does it fit your hammock!

Finally got the Suspension fixed I think!! Take a peek at the last photo but I think the Darting helped to create a shape like the Hammock Gear UQ's in that I have like a leg shelf. Anyhow I Will be testing it tonight although temps won't be anywhere close to the limits - I believe this is good to like -10* but here is how she looks in the yard tonight;

Pics 3 and 4 show what looks like a really good seal on the hammock. And the quilt itself looks quite lofty and warm. The blue color also stands out nicely against the snow.
"...the height of hammock snobbery!"
Looks good. And how did it work over night?
