What about fussy cutting a small orange dot and appliqueing it over the hole? The block already has an orange dot in the pattern. You will know the mend is there but only the Quilt Police will find it.

Since the lion is the king of the jungle. I think it would be cute to applique a crown on his head to cover the hole. You could use a machine decorative stich around it to jewel it up in places while it is still a quilt top.

This may be a little unorthodox for other quilters, but since I'm a short-cut fool, I would make another block and sort of applique it over the existing one. Since it's so colorful, I don't think anyone will notice the extra thickness of one little block.
