NZ, I get my batting from Marshall's Dry Goods... and thread too. They have the batting by the roll. Is that what you want? I buy a lot of their 5 oz poly batting, but sometimes also their 80/20 cotton/poly blend. And I get the 12,000 yd spools of American and Efird thread: D Core which is cotton wrapped polyester. Tex 40. Marshall's has those in white, ecru and sometimes black. It's mostly all I use for quilting, and piecing too.
I would call Marshalls and ask to speak to a wholesale salesman. They can tell you how long it will take to ship. It's usually pretty fast, but with this stupid virus going on, who knows? Good luck!
