But have you found a decent source? My partner has a small roll which

several such small bit and fiddly thing rolls but never seem to be able
to find them - at a sensible price!

This _is_ uk.d-i-y, isn't it? Buy suitable materials, and sit down at a
sewing machine.

I used sail canvas, but that was a bit heavy for a domestic sewing
machine and had to be hand stitched.

My main machine will even handle leather without complaint, but yes,
many/most domestic machines will have difficulty with sailcloth, denim,
or leather.

My mum's old Singer never had a problem. Even coped with human thumb
on one occasion. I believe different needles were required.
