Ah...ha! Google-fu has come through! I found one for sale for $750. *grins* Totally out of my price range 
Definitely on the wish list...along with the boot patcher (29 K) . I totally don't have the space but I think there interesting.

Sounds like a plan, I'm going to be using a 15-91 and a *thinks* maybe.... hmm... that's a toughie. I'll definitely will be using the 15-91. With a bright red scarlet thread so ya'll can check out my mistakes. hahaha. My repairs don't hold up too well. I'll just be using a scrap piece.

Okay, here's my pic. I did it with a 1956 Brother Pacesetter free arm machine using a spring darner. I actually didn't remember I had one of these little springs. It's kind of a pain to use but it worked okay. My problem was being so close to the pocket, had go real slow and careful not to hit the pocket rivet. It's not perfect but it will do.
