Was given a sectional. Very comfortable but the material is fake leather like and is flaking off. Because of its shape I'm having a hard time finding a cover.

You might have to make your own or buy fabric to recover
https://www.confessionsofaserialdiyer.com/how-to-make-a-sectional-slipcover/
First need to really think how much you want to put into an inexpensive sofa. It will take tons of fabric to recover, approx 20 yards and a lot of labor. Loom on you tube for tutorials on how to recover a sectional sofa.
This is another tutorial: https://tatertotsandjello.com/make-dropcloth-sofa-sectional-slipcover/
or you can paint it..check u tube.
You are not going to find a ready-made cover for your individual shaped sectional that will be less expensive than making your own.

And here's a neat product I found. It's a self adhesive leather repair kit: https://www.amazon.com/Adhesive-Leather-Repairing-Patches-Clothing/dp/B0758G1TJV/ref=asc_df_B0758G1TJV/?tag=hyprod-20&linkCode=df0&hvadid=241953410811&hvpos=1o2&hvnetw=g&hvrand=853291288360115371&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=9011817&hvtargid=pla-447026442233&psc=1
I'm not endorsing this amazon site, just found it at thought it might be an inexpensive solution!
Good luck!
