I have a pair of solid black shorts that has a small hole in one of the side-front pockets (it is in an area where it can be seen). This hole is no more than 1/4" long. I had to take some of the stitches out in the pocket area in order to get a piece of iron-on fabric repair tape in place on the backside. So, that part is done.

I love these shorts, and I don't want to throw them out because of one tiny small hole. If I could find matching fabric, I would take the pocket apart, cut a new piece, and sew it back together. But with all the different shades of black, I doubt if that will be possible.

I'm wondering if there is something that I can buy, like maybe a very small iron-on emblem to cover the outside where you can still see some of the bare threads? I thought of sewing on a small black button, but when I put the button over that area, I thought, now that would be tacky looking LOL. I want it to be as least noticeable as possible. I wear many different colored tops with these shorts, so whatever I use couldn't clash with my tops. Any suggestions? Thanks.
