I totally lucked out as the color was a match on the first order. I liked the larger size. It does NOT look like tape like some others on the market. I unzipped the cover and added additional stuffing to the arm prior to adding the patch. I also pulled the area that was peeling so they would not be any long loose pieces underneath the patch once it was attached. I colored the edge of the patch (before I remove the backing) with a dark marker to cover the white cut edging. I think that helps make it look less obvious once applied. My only complaint is that it isn’t the same texture as my sofa, but then I knew it wouldn’t be. Overall I love the product.
