I absolutely love my memory bear. When I hugged it I felt such a relief and was a feeling I will never forget. It was absolutely perfect and I am looking forward to getting others for my family to keep with them

My husband gave me a bear kit after I lost my mother. I selected the clothes and let the team at The Patchwork Bear put it together for me based on what they thought would look best. I couldn't be more pleased with the outcome and I have to admit that I cried when I opened it. My bear is absolutely perfect and a wonderful reminder of my mom along with some of her favorite outfits combined with a few of her quilting fabrics. THANK YOU!
