materials!

my quilt uses calendared 1.1 ripstop nylon with a DWR applied. The insulation is Hungarian 850+ fill power goose down. This means that one ounce of down will expand or "loft" to over 850 cubic inches of airspace. The baffles are made of No-see-um mesh, and the thread is Gutterman polyester for strengh and long life in outdoor situations. All materials are first quality.

  1. I've been accused of being a moron before, so I'll go ahead and ask what your underquilts weight. I understand the weight of the fill, but how about the weight of the whole thing?
