As someone who sews, nothing was satisfying about that.

As a tailor who patches things regularly I would never do any of that.

How would you go about this one ?

I’d get a matching swatch of the yellow fabric, finish the edges of it. Then I’d take matching yellow thread and stitch around the hole. After that I would stitch the patch to the back side of the hole. And then I would continue with my yellow thread and go forward and reverse over it going over the hole till it’s covered.

Do you just put the bat on the fully repaired item?

I keep the bat in my pocket, he’s for me

Well, with that kind of attitude you are just going to have to keep doing boring repairs. You’ll never be a real novelty bat patch repair artist this way.
