I've been looking for a while. In a last ditch attempt I've decided on a Snugpak UQ but found that DD are out of stock. I need one for April 5th for a trip to Sweden so any ideas welcome.

Let me know how u get on, these selfish buggers aren't gonna part with any of there's. Ha
Well it aint pretty that's for sure, but I'm hoping it will offer an extra bit of protection for my Sweden trip. Temps there are down to -10 still so I may need every little bit of help!
I picked up a Global-Lite sleeping bag, brand new for £4 from a car boot last summer so I decided it was worth butchering as it packs down nice and small.
I cut and re-stitched the ends and also cut off the zips. Then I stitched a hem along both sides to thread the elastic cord through and added some tabs on both ends.
Luckily enough I had a load of long lengths of elastic cord from various DD purchased and group buys so the only cost was the cotton thread.
It rides up to the top of the mozzie net and has an additional shock cord that can be cinched-in from inside the hammock.
Job Done!
If that doesnt work you can get the snugpak underblanket and top quilt here http://www.outdoorgb.com/p/snugpak_hammock_underblankets/, mine arrived in a week.
