    Question Top Quilt Slides Away

    I'm having an annoying problem with one of my hammocks where my top quilt slips down in the middle of the night and starts sliding out a of the hammock. It's the Onewind ultralight hammock and the Onewind top quilt. I think the problem might be that the hammock is slightly to narrow for me, once I'm on an angle. My feet don't hang out, but there's not a lot of bonus fabric near my head and feet. Any ideas of how to stop my top quilt from escaping without having to buy different gear? I don't mind spending $20-30 CAD to modify something.

    My partner has that same hammock, she had the "double" like I do but it was too much extra material for her so she picked up that "ultralight" one since it was narrower. I suspect that if she didn't use a bugnet all the time, or the fact that the UQ comes up farther on the sides she would have that same issue.
    The one thing I would suggest, if you're not doing it already, is to snap the neck together. Of course that doesn't help if it's too warm to have the quilt pulled up to your neck.
