A Simple Memory Bear made with one shirt
Debra H. (Long Beach, US)
Golden Knights Teddy

My mom was the number one fan of her Las Vegas Golden Knights ! I had a memory bear for my father made a few years back and decided this is what I wanted with one of her jerseys… each bear is thoughtfully done and creative I might add.. it is so different from my daddy’s flannel bear but so cute
They now sit together on my father’s recliner in my home ! Love them
Thank you Patchwork for your care in making them

Very pleased with my Simple Memory Bear

The Patchwork Bear did an amazing job making my Simple Memory Bear. The process was easy from start to finish. I'm so thankful to have a Bear made from one of my mom's sweatshirts that can remind me of her for many years to come. A huge thank you to The Patchwork Bear!

Thank you sooo much Jen and the Patchwork Bear team. The Claire Bears and Claire Birds are so beautiful. They made some of us teary-eyed and brought back so many wonderful memories of Claire. I am especially thankful to Meghan that they arrived in time for Claire's birthday. It made the day even more meaningful and gave us something special to hold close to our hearts. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Alabama Mom

My mom was born and raised in Alabama. So I had my bear made out of one of her Alabama shirts and I absolutely love it soon as I pulled it out of the box, I started crying and gave it a big old hug like she would’ve done, Lord I miss her and I thank you for the craftsmanship that you’re able to provide. It looks absolutely wonderful.

Great gift idea

After my dad passed I sent in some shirts of his and had some bears made for family members. Everyone who received theirs, absolutely loved it. It gave them a sense of my dad always being there with them. They are beautifully and carefully made.

Carefully Crafted, Forever Cherished

If you’re looking for a meaningful keepsake made with love and care, I can’t recommend ‘The Patchwork Bear’ enough. My custom rabbit, made from five pieces of my grandmother’s clothing, turned out even more beautiful than I imagined. I especially loved having the option to customize the fabric placement, which made it feel even more personal. The quality, communication, attention to detail, and packaging were all amazing. I called and emailed several times with questions before placing my order, and they went above and beyond to help guide me. You can truly feel the genuine care they put into preserving the meaningful memories behind each keepsake they create. I am forever thankful for this sweet little bunny and the memories stitched into every part of it.

I received the Bereavement Bears made from my brothers clothes that he wore while serving in Vietnam. They will be a wonderful reminder of him for my sisters and I. Thank you so much.

A comforting hug

My mom passed away after a battle with breast cancer. My daughters were struggling with the loss of their Nana. Their faces lit up when they saw their bears! We talked about the different pieces of fabric and what articles of clothing they came from. The bears haven’t left their sides since. They carry them around, sleep with, they’ve even named them. And by total coincidence, the bears arrived on my Mom’s birthday. It was the perfect gift.

A thoughtfully and artfully made time capsule!

I recently received my memory quilt of my daughter’s baby and toddler clothing after years of setting aside the most special items and then too many more years of waiting to get around to it. When I finally committed to getting it done and started browsing online, I found I was not in love with many of the samples I’d seen created by other quilt makers. Enter The Patchwork Bear. I could tell at once that they would craft the kind of piece I’d envisioned all of these years. Needless to say, I am thrilled with the results. Many many thanks!

Just Perfect

Jen at the Patchwork Bear was amazing to work with. She made two bears from one of my dad’s medium dress shirts and they are absolutely precious. She even made certain I’d receive the bears in time for my daughter’s baby shower. If you want a memory bear, I highly recommend Patchwork Bear!

Most amazing keepsake memory pillow!

The pillow was beautifully made. It is the perfect keepsake for the home and pairs perfectly with my upcycled tee shirt blankets. I highly recommend using The Patchwork Bear for turning old tee shirts into new memories.

Brother Bear

A friend of mine gave me your name when we lost my husband’s brother. You made a beat for my husband, one for our niece (his daughter) and a set of birds for all of his nieces and nephews. They all turned out absolutely perfect!!! And what was even more perfect, we were having a birthday celebration for him in memory, and these were delivered during the party.
We all thank you for helping make our day awesome!!!

Grandkids Loved Them

After my husband dies, I sent shirts to have bears made for our grandchildren. Even the one I kept for myself was “taken” by the oldest who hadn’t planned on taking one. I also shared photos I had of him wearing the shirts. One of the kids carried that bear around all weekend when our family was together. The timing and arrival were perfect and the adult kids really loved them too.

Beautiful work

I had a bear made for my daughter. What an amazing job they did. The team was so nice and friendly. They really take the time to make sure they know exactly what you want and the finished product show. I will be going back for more memory bears.
