I haven't read all of the ansers, so someone else may have come up with this solution, but my thought is to take another part of the same block that has some of that creamy-white color in it, ravel a couple of the threads, and after putting a little spot of fusible stablizer on the back (gently work it in), thread that creamy-white thread and 'darn' the torn area. You will be using the exact same thread as in the fabric. In theory, it works. The fusible stablizer on the back will help to re-inforce it.
Let us know what worked for you.

Ditto!

I would put a red dot on it because there is one on the side so put one on top. I would applique it on.

I would applique something cute over that hole and follow through with repeating the applique in all the lion's blocks.

PS...that's an adorable quilt!

I do this all the time. sometimes when I get the wrong color or the block turned wrong. and have done it for friends. works great. go for it.

That's what I was thinking too! I hate to rip

Some kind of an applique would be so much easier and faster. Just make it look like you intended it from the start. No one will be the wiser.

Applique an orange dot over the top. It will look like it was supposed to be there.

Oh, guess I should have read the other posts first. Great minds think alike.

Since your fabric has little circles in it, I would cut a circle and make it similar to a yoyo and sew it in place by hand.

This is what I do. An applique would seem out of place!

That's what I would do.

Sure. No need to go as far as the borders. I'd like to point out that sometimes it is easier to hand sew the replacement block than to line it up exactly using the machine. You don't have to remove any stitches beyond the piece that needs to be replaced. Personally, I would find that easier than doing a little applique, but that's just me. Use a ladder stitch and work from the front side, and it won't show at all.

very good idea for a fix I have been there too

Cut out lips applique and put it on - a kiss from Gramma.

Thimblebug 6000 is right. It isn't hard at all. Go for it.

put a thought bubble above the lion so the lion is saying who made the quilt .

This is inexpensive, can be purchased at Joann's (use a coupon) and works wonders. I wouldn't undo that quilt if it were mine. The quilt is as cute as can be and an applique would not hurt it, but this should fix it similarly to the mending stuff mentioned before, but a lot easier.
Have a good day, and don't stress over all our advice. :)

I would just take the block out. I would 't be happy leaving it in and giving it away. You could also just open it enough to make that seam just a hair larger.

Cut out one of those circles from the material on the quilt and applique it over it spot. No one but you would know it wasn't suppose to be there.

I think I would just applique a matching square over it. If you are very careful when ironing it and folding, you should not even be able to see the 'repair'. IMHO

I've done this a few times as well, when I found I had sewn the block in wrong or found a hole. It's very doable.

I'd fussy cut a few circles and place them randomly.

How about trying some fusible like a patch on the back to keep it together?

my thoughts exactly.

applique, I believe that is why applique was done by our grandmothers. Also if you scatter a few around the quilt, nobody knows why and think it is a part of the design.

Applique a sun on top of it. :XD:

Hey Just applique an orange circle over the hole. Looks like that there is already one on the side seam! I think that would be just great! Happy Quilting!
OK so I didn't read all the posts before I made mine!

That's my suggestion too.
