I inherited my fathers old down bag from the 70's. It still got about 3 inches of loft on the top and bottom maybe 4. Originally it was a 0* bag. Recently I have been comfortable in the 30s with in a tent. It is a rip stop nylon shell with some tiny holes loosing down which I have taped over.
So here are my options:
1) fix the zipper and keep it as is.. I'm not too keen on this as I alrdy have. 40,20,0 and -15 bag.
2) bring it to a seamstress with a diy under quilt plan and have her cut and sew it up. Then I can run the cord though the channels.
3) have seamstress just patch the holes and remove the zipper and hood turning it into a footied top quilt..
Concerns : its old and I'm not confident enough to sew it myself
What does the collective say?
