Best Lightweight sleeping bag/ good quality.

Last year I bought myself an EE Revelation quilt...I find it much better than a sleeping bag....

it's great stuff, isn't it?

I've never really looked at using a quilt do you have to carry something else to go under you? I don't think I'd fancy sleeping directly on top of my Exped mat.

I put my Exped Synmat into a rectangular sleeping bag liner, makes for a comfortable surface to sleep on and also eliminates the noise from the mat on the groundsheet.

It doesn't bother me to sleep directly on the Thermarest, not at all. Never felt it "clammy" in any way, but I always sleep with some clothes on (usually a LS baselayer and shorts or longjohns), if it was that warm to not need any clothes when sleeping I won't be using an insulating mat in the first place.
Or just get/make a sort of "bedsheet" for the mat, or use a sleeping liner.
