Default Padding for low joists

Hi,

I have a small bedroom in a kind of roof space where the roof
joists/purlins, (not sure what they are called - the joist like timbers
which slope from an apex under the valley), intrude into the living
space below head height.

I want to fix some padding to them to avoid damage from banging one's
head on them. I thought of thick central heating pipe lagging, and
covering it in material, but dont really want to get into sewing and all
that.

Any ideas?
