Nope, we accounted for the weight of all the blankets and bedding and stuff, it was just so much less to manhandle when we packed it together.

We used one of these:

Which was a no-frills bag that was literally designed to meet the maximum size guidelines for checked baggage. Then used XL/L space bags packed with stuff mentioned above stacked in there. Worked like a champ.
