Hammock quilts

[brancho]

I currently have a DD hammock quilt that I use with the under blanket which is good for much of the year.

Has anyone tried the new hammock quilt from DD with the hood?

Also having seen this design I am thinking of modding a down sleeping bag to be similar for winter use. I was thinking of taking the hood off previously and using it upside down but the slit up the back looks a better design.

Sorry but isn't that just a sleeping bag with a slit up the back ?

LOL, it sure looks like it.

That or a costume for you to imitate an insect emerging from it's chrysalis

Yes.....yes it is lol

Slightly more hassle than a traditional top quilt but it should work well enough.
Less easy to vent in warmer weather mind

The whole concept is lost on me I'm afraid; I can't see how this is easier to get in and out of than a normal sleeping bag

I must be missing something.

The only real difference is there's no zip to mess around with

You can sit in the hammock then get in the bag like a backwards boiler suit
