from 1373 reviewsMy bear was made from
Some of my grandpas clothes and it had issues with the stitching on the back. I sent it out after my mom reached out to get it repaired and just got it back today.
Thank you Jen! I cant even begin to express how much i appreciate your help💕 this bear means so much to me. So glad to be able to hug it again.
Wow ! Wow! Wow! These are amazing! The customer service was top notch They each have their own unique qualities that bring different memories of my Mom and Grandma. I will have trouble choosing which one I will keep. Customer service is top notch especially when you have a ditzy customer. When I gift these I will share personal photos for now here are the bears.
The bears, two of them, came out beautifully – they were made of shirts for my husband for my daughter as she expects her first baby – I was delighted!
I received my bitty bear and it’s so cute. Such great quality..much much better than I expected.
We lost my sweet dad in May of this year. He was in the hospital for 7 weeks and due to age restrictions, my son wasn’t able to visit him or say goodbye and it was extremely hard for him. After he passed, I knew I wanted to get him a bear made from grandpas clothes so he could have a little bit of grandpa with him. I did a lot of research on different companies and I am so thankful that I went with The Patchwork Bear. I picked one of his flannels, and was slightly concerned that that color would be too dark, and you wouldn’t be able to see the bear’s eyes. The way that they lined the fabric up was perfect, and you can tell that a lot of thought went into what part of the fabric to put where on the bear. I’m so thankful that my six-year-old has his Grandpa Bear. The quality is amazing and I feel like it’s going to last forever. Thank you for giving us something special to remember my dad by. I truly think it’s helped my son with his grief. We’ll be ordering another.
I ordered 2 Mini Bears to be made out of an Army shirt my father in law wore before he passed. He was a Very Proud Korean War Veteran. When I gave one to my wife and mother in law they both loved them. Thanks for doing such a great job.
These two bears are just adorable! I love being able to see what fabric came from what article of clothing.
These bears were made from my husband’s favorite shirts and jeans. I had pictures of him in those to give with the bears to my kids. A beautiful memory of a man so very loved.
I can’t say enough wonderful things about these memory bears. I ordered 4 for our family. They were made from my grandmother’s shirts, and they mean so much to our family. When I opened them, I cried. ❤️ They are absolutely beautiful and such a special way to keep a little piece of her close to us.
Thank you for creating something so meaningful that we will treasure forever. What a beautiful keepsake and such a wonderful way to honor her memory. 🤍
Wonderful from the start! Great instructions on what to do and what to gather! Great communication with the seller and surprisingly fast turn around!!
Love my bears! My son recently passed away and I had a couple made with his clothes. Communication was great and they made sure to use the items I asked for.
My Niece will be one this year and unfortunately never got to meet her great grandfather. This is beautifully made. And the fact that you were able to incorporate some of the leather is amazing 🥰
My Mom had a favorite shirt. It was old, fraying at the cuffs and collar, and had holes in several places but she wore it every night over her night gown. We even attempted to find a replacement for it once upon a time, but nothing felt right to her. That ratty old shirt was one of several things I could not bring myself to throw out or donate when she passed. It was ... her. My memories of her are filled images of her in that shirt ... not to mention it SMELLED like her.
For the last 6 years, I desperately wanted to do something to honor her memory. Then I learned about memory bears. I have always loved teddy bears so I decided that that was what I wanted to do with the shirt.
Recently, I discovered The Patchwork Bear. I was impressed with the quality of the work shown on their website and after a few days consideration, I decided to finally go for it. But I had questions. My mom was a very petite lady ... 4'11 in heels and 100 lbs. soaking wet. I was worried that there wouldn't be enough fabric to create the standard size memory bear (she shopped in the kids section). I emailed them and they were so helpful! They suggested I go with the "simple bitty bear" to be safe.
Tonight, my memory bear arrived in the mail and I can't tell you how happy I am! Not just with the quality of work, which is very impressive ... but also with the care they took when shipping it back. I even got the unused scraps back as requested!
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
The bear is beautiful. A wonderful keepsake.
They were professional and personal in my interactions.
A couple of decisions I didn't know what to do so I left it to their judgement and I couldn't be more happy. Thank you for a marvelous gift.
The memory bear we ordered is worth every penny. Our daughter’s little onesies were made into a perfect bear. We will cherish it forever.
