I wanted to say Thanks! to Ray from Cardboardgold4u, who let me know that he found a Cubs Fleer Cloth Patch variation that I had not previously been aware of:
At first glance, there doesn't appear to be anything different about this patch. To see the difference, you need to look at the "UBS" inside of the large "C". The letters are further to the left and the S is completely inside the "C", whereas most patches with the darker blue background have the letters more to the right of the "C".
The picture below of the original 2 variations I've covered previously shows the difference in the position of the letters:
This newly discovered patch shows that for at least one year Fleer changed the color from light blue to dark blue and kept the Cubs logo the same before transitioning to the logo with the letters inside the "C" moved slightly to the right.
Thanks again to Ray for this new discovery!
