I couldn't open your page, so I can't comment on this specifically.
I fixed a sand through in a quilted maple top. I doubt the method would work for you, exactly, but here it is in case it geves you some ideas.
The table was big and expensive and we were way committed to it. The quilted maple was fantastic. I had a couple extra leaves of it, but that was all we could get.
I taped over a matching section of an extra leaf with several layers of clear packing tape. I sanded through this patch until the edges feathered out into nothing, but the center was a bit bigger than my blivet.
I drenched this patch with crazy glue and put it in place, smoothing it out to avoid bubbles. I used a padded board, I think, to spread the pressure around. With crazy glue, you just need a good, short anerobic matchup to set the glue.
When it set, I scraped/peeled the tape, sanded it out, and lacquered it. Thank God it was quilted, it blended in pretty well. I might have had to address a bubble or lifted edge or two. You could just see faint shadows where the grain lines were mismatched by 1/32" or so. It looked like I had Photoshopped it in.
