    I like the Warm & Natural for hand quilting but also use Hobbs 80/20 which is 80% cotton and 20% polyester. It has a little higher loft, not as flat as W & N.

    I like Hobbs Heirloom or Quilter's Dream the best. W&N is too stiff if it's quilted very close.

    I use the QD poly for quilts that I want to have a more modern look after they're washed since it doesn't shrink.

    The Hobbs has just the tiniest bit of loft to it and gives your quilting some nice definition. If I want a flatter look I use the QD cotton.

    I hand quilt and just discovered Hobbs Tuscany 100% cotton. It comes in silk, wool and polyester too.
