clothing repair question

[rm]

I have this fabulous brocade jacked that the elbow just sort of shredded out on. I don't actually know how to fix it. I just have to put a bloody patch on it don't I?

I agree with the previous comment, that it may be possible to repair it from the inside, or use stitchwork to fix the fabric. I'd also suggest making an identical repair premptively on the other elbow.
