Captain Pete wrote:Hi Mike,
Great looking quilts, very nicely done. I noticed you used Membrane 10 on some of your earlier quilts. I was planing on ordering some samples from RBTR to see how they sew. How has your experience been with the material? Have you tried using it for the outer shells, or just lining?
Cheers,
Pete

tom_b wrote:Just wanted to leave a quick review of of Mike's quilt and hood.
I had Mike make me a SUL 3/4 length quilt where weight was an absolute priority. It came in at 258g for 4C. I pair this with my Montbell Plasma 1000 jacket (140g) for a summer sleep system, or a warmer jacket when it gets colder. Mike worked with me to get the exact dimesions right so it would fit with a Neoair Xlite Small.
Having now used it to walk the 1300km South Island of New Zealand on Te Araroa I can positively say it is excellent. I had 10D tafetta and 950fp down. I have no concerns about durability for the 10D. The 10D is super silky and soft. I also own a ZPacks -12C bag and I definitely prefer the 10D over their material, it is even lighter too!
I cannot recommend Mike enough for personal service, high quality craftsmanship, and reasonable prices (look at US vendors for equivalent quality, but much more expensive).
I also took one of his Primaloft Gold hoods. I chose a synthetic hood over a down one as my previous down hood had reached the end of its lifespan from oils and use. The synthetic hoods are not as puffy or light (although the difference in weight is essentially non-existent) however they certainly will last a lot longer. He offers both and you really can't go wrong. I would say be careful about the sizing of the hood as fit is very important. I also did not use the button he included for the neck so next time I would have that removed and just have the hood sewn through there to be even warmer. Often hood have large baffles which results in cold spots but I can say Mike has avoided this and I never noticed cold spots.
Overall I just simply can't recommend Mike enough.

No doubt a pretty big project but I don't think it's taken you too long to get it done. How did you go about accurately marking everything out and cutting the fabric?

Well made/priced and functional. Best bit? I can roll around under a quilt and not have it drag against me or any clothing, so much more comfortable and restful, sleep quality improved out of sight.
This quilt and my Terra Rosa tarp combined, so pleased to [ in all honesty ] re-ignite my outdoor adventure passion......

PS: Has anyone had experience washing and drying these quilts? What's the recommended method so as not to damage the down?
