That’s a skill I’ve been meaning to pick up forever.
Give it a shot! Packs are intimidating but the material is easier to sew and more forgiving of mistakes than super light stuff like tarps, quilts, etc.
That makes sense. My mom has been offering to teach me, so I definitely should.
I eventually want to make an FKT-style quilt for summer, that’s maybe rated 50* with a 30* footbox. Something light that I could stretch slightly lower by layering clothes.
that’d be a great first project, based on what i can tell apex-sandwich quilts are pretty straight-forward. exactly how the differential insulation is secure i’m less sure, but you could probably just cut it and tape it :)

I’ve been cooking in my 20* quilt this summer.
