Please do not advocate rolling your own crypto - there are tons of pitfalls in nesting encryption algorithms like what you've just suggested. Besides, symmetric encryption algorithms aren't the biggest target of quantum computers, and in modern systems like TLS we really only use asymmetric encryption to exchange a symmetric key, and there are safe algorithms implemented by people who know what they're doing already available in most libraries.
