How can I mend a tear in a vinyl sofa?

I have a tear in the cushion in my red vinyl sofa( The cushion is attached to the sofa) . I want to know how can I repair it cheaply and quickly? Thank you

iF YOU HAVE A CANADIAN TIRE "STYLE" STORE NEARBY, YOU CAN PURCHASE A VINYL REPAIR KIT THERE. THEY ARE SUPPLIED FOR CAR UPHOLSTERY, BUT THEY WORK ON INTERIOR VINYL AS WELL. IT WON'T BE PERFECT THE FIRST TIME, SO i SUGGEST THAT YOU PRACTICE ON A SCRAP OR A HIDDEN SPOT FIRST. THEY COME IN THE PRIMARY COLOURS, BUT I SUPPOSE YOU COULD GET CREATIVE AND MIX THE RIGHT SHADE
