Welcome! You'd get more responses to your question, by starting your own thread with that topic.
In general, poly/cotton tends to be thinner and the poly will outlive the cotton of that particular fabric. That said, a
good quality cotton will last a long, long time. 100% is easier to piece, as it clings better to itself and can withstand a hotter pressing iron. 100% is also more breathable and makes for a more comfortable cover. However, is you already have a bunch of poly/cotton fabric, it can certainly be used for a quilt!
