My wife is in to scrapbooking and has a Cricut that she uses to make greeting cards and other arts and crafts. I gave her some pillow ticking and had her make me some patches. She made about a hundred and it only took a couple minutes to program machine. She can make any size!
Two hobby’s collide!

I love the craft/fabric store! 
Neat stuff for shooting (mattress ticking, beeswax) and fly tying (all manner of foam/feathers, beads/wire, scissors, etc.).
Not to mention, the clientele is usually more attractive, and virtually always better smelling, than down at the gun shop!
I punch my wads with an Osborne drive punch, which gives its own sense of satisfaction.
Wasn’t sure where you were going with the thread title- when dealing w/black powder, there are endless rabbit holes! Making patches/wads/lubes, casting bullets, etc., etc.!
