50 x 50mm is probably sufficient for backing a torn
out button or strengthening each end of a large rip.
(two of different sizes)

(can also double as emergency fishing hooks)
(two shirt and one trouser or as fits your clothes)

Place the cotton patch on leather patch.
Double up cotton patch if necessary
Thread buttons onto the safety pin.
Stick the needle, pins and safety pin parallel through (in and out of) the cotton patch.
Coil black and white threads independantly and place between the cotton and leather.
Ensure the ends do not stick out beyond the patches.
Roll the patches and secure with the button thread.

If weight is not an issue pack what you will.
