Big Fabric or Linen Store near Bay area, CA.?

Any one know big Fabric or Linen store? I am looking for 60oz poly/nylon padding (1/2 inch thick) and some think polyester cover cloth. Can't find in any store like Joann or arts and craft store. Is there like special store for commercial tailor or big fabric cover maker go to?

Thanks in advance.
Thx KAY ....for the reply.
I need it to make padding and cover for ironing pad. I don't really know what material it is call. it look like polyester wadding or padding a little less than 1/2 inch thick and some one said it is 60oz or so. May be really think flannel.
where do normally professional go to get such material? any specialize fabric or linen store?
thank!

A half-inch thick batting is going to be horrible to iron on.. the fabric that you're ironing will distort because of the "cush" and weight of the iron.

If you'd like to do it like a pro, you can go the old fashioned way and use a few layers of wool flannel or a couple of layers of wool coating or army blanket as a pad, and then cover it with cotton duck, muslin, or linen. The wool absorbs the heat and steam, letting the fabric dry and cool and remain in the pressed form.
Wool is also naturally flame resistant, and self-extinguishes when the source of ignition is removed, a natural safety factor. And scorched wool smells really bad, a good pre-fire warning.

If you'd like to go high tech, the surface a number of people like are these needle-punch fleece pads and nomex cover from Golden Hands:

60 oz? Or 6.0 oz? (A standard lap quilt, 60x60", would then weigh about 10.5 lbs if you used 60 oz batting.) By padding, I'd guess you mean something like a needlepunch batting?

What are you trying to make? How much do you need?

Most of the SF bay area fabric stores are geared to consumer fabrics... it sounds like what you really are looking for is a jobber, and I wonder if there are many left down there, considering real estate prices.
