A quilt is a kind of blanket that is made from layers of fabric stitched together. The top layer is made from scraps of fabric made into patterns or a picture. Quilts used to be a good way to use up leftover bits of fabric, but in modern times people make quilts as a hobby using new fabric in the colors that they want.

A quiver is something you store arrows in. You usually carry a quiver by wearing it on your back.
Quoins are decorative stones at the corners of brick or stone buildings. Sometimes they are made of bricks on a stone building, or of contrasting coloured bricks on a brick building. In older buildings quoins were structural, and added strength at the corners. In more recent buildings, quoins are decorative, and are added to make a building look stronger, or simply give it an 'older' style look. Quoins on a house that is made from timber or any other light building material are purely decorative.
Quoits, sometimes called ring toss, is a game where you throw rings at a peg. The aim of the game is to get as many rings on the peg as possible.
The rings were originally heavy and made of metal, but they can also be made of wood, rope, or even used horseshoes. Quoits using horseshoes is called horseshoe pitching.
