Weekend Duffle memory bag

I’m so happy with the finished look of this bag . The design and finishes are flawless. I especially like the side pockets made from my daughter’s jeans pockets. This bag was made with love ❤️ I’ll treasure this forever

Duffle memory bag

I am so happy with my bag. I used all of my military T-shirts and it turned out so great. Some of my T-shirts was over 40 years old thank you very much.

Exceeded my expectations

I collected up my favorite tees and sent them to be made into a weekend duffle bag. The color assortment I sent was pretty bland (mostly gray tees with fairly monochromatic graphics). I am amazed what the Patchwork Bear team created! It is colorful and creative! They even utilized the front pouch from my hoodie as a pocket on one end - genius! I am absolutely thrilled with my one-of-a-kind bag!
