The biggest difference is W&N has a scrim and the Hobbs 80/20 does not. The scrim will make the quilt stiffer after it's quilted. Another difference is the W&N is needle punched thru the scrim and it has a firmer, flatter appearance. The Hobbs has a tiny bit of loft to it and will give your quilting a bit of definition.
