Default Disastrous Mistake 😢 Any help would be appreciated

Hey All,
So today I was running late (mistake #1), smoking a cigarette (mistake #2) when I accidentally burned the crap out of the supporting pillar fabric inside my car (mistake #3). Any ideas on the best way to go about fixing this little doozy? i planned on selling this car in a couple months & besides this, my interior is perfect. I would prefer keeping it with the same stock fabric that is throughout the car. Please help me 😩

Junk yard? Failing that, perhaps a herringbone stich across the burn, pulling the edges together. You'll have a pucker, but it will look "attended to."

Check with a full service detail shop. There are guys out there that have special materials and the skills to repair something like that.
