When it comes to fabric patterns, they come in a wide variety. Theoretically any fabric with any type of pattern could just be applied randomly as it was cut off the roll. In addition, different upholsterers have different standards that they go by. To some it may not make any difference whether they match a patterned fabric or not. On the other end of the spectrum some upholsterers may match all patterns. When we speak of "non-matching fabrics" we mean that the fabric is either plain in color (no pattern) or that the fabric is so diffused or irregular that it wouldn't be obvious if the pattern was matched or not.
When you are considering having a antique reupholstered, there are a number of factors that need to be considered. What is most important to you? Preserving the frame, restoring to original, just making it usable, keeping the cost down, etc.? Some people who bring in antiques to recover just want the cover changed, they say everything else (under the cover) is just fine. To be blunt, they don't really know what the insides look like. In addition to that, the average person doesn't really look at their furniture.

Upholstery fabrics come in a variety of patterns and designs, such as plain, all over designs, stripes, plaids, bouquet designs, geometric, random, continuous stems, or even a mixture of several of these. Many upholstery materials do not require any matching, while others won't look good if they aren't matched. Still other fabric patterns can look good matched or unmatched. Whether the upholsterer matches those fabrics will depend upon the client's preferences. In some cases, pattern matching can add considerable yardage and extra labor costs to the upholstery job.
