    New top quilt.

    Well, my new top quilt was waiting for me when I got home today. I'm in the backyard now for some testing. It's supposed to get down to 34. I'm nice and toasty right now. The fleece patch is very nice. I'll post an update in the morning and throw together a video review after I've had a chance to do a bit more testing.

    I think your point was to rub it in for those of us who are working and unable to get in our hammocks.

    most definitely an awesome set up! your color combination is very nice.
    you're really gonna like the fleece patch.
    it's comfortable against the skin and a brilliant defense against condensation.

    The fleece is right by your face. Nice and soft.

    Well, it's 32* and I slept like a baby. Never even got a little chill and that's with shorts and a t-shirt. I think this could be the start of a wonderful thing

    The site say 10*, but I think with a good base layer you might be able to go lower
