Is it two bits of material come apart, or an actual rip/tear within one piece of material? If it's the latter, have you considered tape? And if you think it will look crap, or the tape won't be up to the job, take a look at Tenacious Tape....
As good as invisible. Works equally well inside or outside. Sticks and seals. Great to leave in your spares box, for those little emergencies.
Just cut into oval shapes, or at the very least, for longer cuts/tears, simply round off the corners. Once it's on, it stays on.
I've used it once on the inside of a sewn in ground sheet (I used Gorilla tape on the underside... just as good, but it's thicker and black (or white) so not invisible, thus not as neat a finish), and once on a green Vango polyester tent fly sheet, (a patch on both inside and outside of the same cut) when my spiked tarp pole went through the front panel.
Very impressive results on both occasions.
Hard to say if it's suitable close to stitching, particularly without a photo. I'm tempted to say it would still work, but it's not something I've tried in that scenario.
