OK, I know there are more sleeping bag threads than Carter has little pills. However, people talk about plus size bags, but don't really give specific measurements.
I need more specific information. I am of average height and 55" in the hips.
These are bags REI has suggested to me:
The Big Agnes Amber SL +30 Sleeping Bag - Women's Regular

Big Agnes Skinny Fish +20 Sleeping Bag

(http://www.rei.com/product/798608)REI Zen +25 Sleeping Bag - Women's Regular

She suggested others, but these were too heavy or expensive. She also suggest a couple of base camp sleeping pads, since these are wider, but both were too heavy.
How heavy are Ensolites? I have a friend that will give me one, and I thought, if it wasn't too heavy, I could use one, or part of one, in addition to a new generation pad.
I can't spend more than $250 for both. I may be able to afford something else later on.
Also, who does quilts, and is that a viable option?
Now, I know there are more brands and better choices out there, but I'm not certain where to look.
Thanks for your help. ~K2~
