If not that then what about quilts? How do they fare compared to bags? Anything to lookout for?

Me neither. I bought a beautifully Australian made quilt rated to -12C, but couldn't keep comfortable warm with it anywhere below 5C. I may just be a cold sleeper. It also could have been the mat I was using at the time and I am a side sleeper, but at any rate, although more restrictive, I decided bags are comfier/warmer.
