I got an enormous roll of rough cotton batting from an upholstery
supplier. It wasn't cheap and the shipping was rather much too, IIRC.
But, I have enough of this stuff to make many, many quilts or quilted
garments. It's really thick, and can be peeled apart at the thickness
desired. It's messier to use than the pre-made stuff, but once I got the
hang of it I found it no worse than anything else. When it's made up and
washed it definitely has that lumpy bumpy look and feel that poly just
can't imitate. 

I got mine here:

If shipping to where you are is too much, I'd suggest contacting a local
upholsterer to see if they can get it for you.
