TRULY insulate your loft (or attic!) - and save the planet

Step 14 First steps 4 - right to the eaves

It is crucial to take the fabric right into the eaves - but also essential not to block the gap between roof and rafters. The design of my roof makes this difficult; I made a series of trays and stitched SF40 onto them. The upright parts of the trays keep the gap open for air movement, while the base holds the quilt down to the wallplate.

I'm not sure this is the best solution. It certainly used up a lot of fabric, and means a lot of joints to tape over in a confined space.. But I wasn't comfortable just nailing the quilt to the floorboards.
