    Default Top quilt design and pattern

    I just finished a new top quilt I had been working on for a while and wanted to share. I have a basic cutout pattern that I made for it.

    I salvaged the goose down from an older gander mountain winter bag with 30 oz of goose down that I bought for 20 bucks from a guy off a local classified add. I only used about half of that down in this project. I would like to make one out of new higher fill power down some day.

    I really like this design vs the basic top quilt pattern as this style curls more naturally under your body and makes it very easy to tuck under and get a good seal. I have done DIY projects like this before and have made tents, tarps, dog packs, etc but have never posted anything on a forum so hopefully this works right.

    Thanks and feel free to share your own unique quilt projects and designs.

    Specs:
    Material: Argon 90
    Filling: Goose down estimate 750 FP
    Stuff sack material: 1 oz Cuben Fiber
    2 in baffles spaced 6 in apart.

    Total weight with stuff sack: 18.4 oz

    Looks good. Might want to reinforce the opening near the foot.

    I don't see a pattern.

    Really nice stitch work...
