Rick,

Having gone through upholstery replacement in our house furniture, I can
tell you that unless you're lucky enough to get fabric from the same dye lot
as the original, any repair will be obvious.  Plus, the fabric in Barric II
has already faded somewhat from age/sun, so even the same dye lot would show
differently.

Much better to just get new.  Let me know if you want a referral to a good
upholsterer here in New Bern.
