Bandit quilt - 72" or 78" for 5'9 (sewn footbox)

[nquinn]

Hi all,

I'm 5'9, and torn between the 72" or 78" bandit quilt.
I plan to get the sewn footbox which states that it reduces length by 4-6".

72" is listed as good for up to 5'9, but i'm not entirely clear where it would land with a sewn footbox on me.

About me:

- Side/stomach sleeper and roll around a lot. Plan to use this on a ground pad(yes, I realize this is hammockforums but I wanted to find other people that have used quilts)
- Want the quilt to come up to just under my chin (not base of my neck), even when my legs are fully stretched out.

Which would you go with? I would like to order while the 10% off labor day sale is going on, but unfortunately UGQ crew is on vacation so I can't get my questions answered.
