Tear in my seat cover. What can I do?

Not everyone is carrying a $1500 dollar industrial upholstery sewing machine that they can just whip out of their van to fix a seat for a fellow member.

The OP is looking for cost effective solutions that he can do himself.

got 4 (well 2 jukis, 1 consew and a modified sailrite long arm for the trunk liners I make) of those and they are about 150 used anymore and the table is another 50 or so but the long arm did cost me 500 to get the extension to make it a longarm , even a crappy singer home sewing machine can sew through (slowly) that vinyl section, there is NO cost effective way to fix bad vinyl that'll rip when you sew into it other than adding eternabond tape on the back side and sewing through the vinyl and eternabond tape OR replacing with new vinyl. there are temporary fixes such as tape and glueing but again temporary.
