I want to make my own bra pads and would like to find where they sell this fabric/material by the yard so that i can purchase some. thanks for your help in advance
because i cant find any place that sells them and i need different sizes for the ladies in my family
Bra pads are nothing more than an outer fabric covering some polyester fiber fill batting. You can use any knit fabric: from true lingerie knit to old t-shirts for the outer fabric and polyester batting is available at almost all fabric stores. If you are making pads for nursing mothers then you'll need a moisture proof backing, soft cotton for against the skin and absorbent cotton for the inner part. Most cities have a Joanne's Fabrics and they should have the batting and they will have some lingerie knits in polyester, nylon and microfibers. You don't rally need anything too special. For web stores Bramaking supplies, sew sassy and bramakers are specialty shops that carry the same fabrics as used by bra manufacturers:

For the very best reference book on how to make your own complete bras check out Beverly Johnsons' book. I took a class with her at the Toronto sewing festival and I have and use the book: http://www.bramakersmanual.com/
