have you tried iron on fabric?
The first step in repairing a torn mattress is to secure the tear shut. Use a curved upholstery needle and upholstery thread, and turn the torn edges down and into the mattress. Sew the edges of the tear together using small stitches. Keep knotting your thread for extra reinforcement. After that you can apply an iron-on patch. The patch will prevent future fraying. Hope you find this info helpful. Good luck.
