I couldn’t be happier with my teddy bear! It was made from my baby’s very first clothes, and the quality and attention to detail are amazing. The stitching is perfect, and I can tell so much care went into creating it. It’s such a beautiful keepsake that I’ll treasure forever. Every time I look at it, I’m reminded of those sweet newborn days. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a special, meaningful way to preserve memories!
This bear is tiny and the perfect little surprise for my wife. A keepsake I chose to be made from a newborn blanket that is about the same size our child was as a newborn.
The bear came and it was just awesome. I love the way all these colors came together. The gift will be one my great nephew can treasure forever.
We ordered two Bitty Bunnies that incorporated two shirts each and they are absolutely wonderful. Incredibly well made and it's obvious that care was taken to "dress" the bunnies just right. Earlier this year my 92 year old mother-in-law passed unexpectedly. She had eleven grandchildren and twenty great grandchildren. The youngest great was three months old when she passed and her 21st great grandchild was born a week after she passed. Both girls carry part of their great grandma's name in their names. Although neither will remember her, we wanted them to have a special keepsake from a woman who would have adored them. We chose Bitty Bunnies because the girls are still small and they are the perfect size for chubby little hands to hold onto. We absolutely love the bunnies and are so grateful to have something that carries wonderful memories of a special woman.
I absolutely love these beautifully crafted, high quality bears. I am planning to gift these to my family as loving reminders of my Dad. The talented team members at Patchwork Bear are truly angels that bring joy to so many.
Thank You So Very Much ❤️
I JUST finished my little bear! He makes me smile. I have sewn and I quilt, but have never before made a bear!
I was SO glad that I opted for purchasing the video, too. It helped so much. I would watch each step, which was very well done, BTW, and then do just that step and then go on to the next.
The iron on pattern was so clear, and well-marked. I loved that each part joined the matching number, and in order of stitching.
VERY well done, all of it! The iron on pattern made working through the steps so much better than just a pattern I would have to cut out without the pattern ironed on. Just made it so straightforward.
I used some favorite, non-directional fabric for this. I was mindful of fabric placement on the pieces so all of the little birds on the fabric showed nicely.
The steps were short and easy and made sense. Thank you for this darling pattern! (I did use some safety eyes that I already had.)

I lost my mother near Mother’s Day
I cleaned out her closet and used her clothes. What an excellent gift to remember your loved one forever. I especially love the poem in the heart!
Hugs are a gift. Thank you for making adorable huggable bears for my family members and myself ❤️
This pattern looks like it will be quick and easy to make. I've ordered three of them and I'm just waiting for the recipients to pick their fabrics.
I really enjoyed making a bear using clothes I embroidered for my daughter when she was a baby/toddler. The instructions and process were mostly easy to follow. I am by no means a sewing machine expert, but the iron-on pattern & numbering system made it relatively easy to assemble with the novice sewing skills I have. I had some trouble with the ears and arms — nothing that was irreversible (or able to be covered up!) I added buttons for the eyes instead of using embroidery thread. Highly recommend for anyone looking to create a keepsake!
So very easy to follow, great instructions! Made 2 mini bears in 2 days! I was so excited with everything marked and numbered I ordered the bundle of three!
These bears are a beautiful reminder for my sons of their grandfather. He passed away suddenly last year and I wanted my boys to have something of his to remember him by. 🩵 Thank you to The Patchwork Bear for the sweet keepsakes.
I LOVED this iron on template process!!! Your process made it so much easier to visualize the steps to make a bear. I paired this with a matching baby quilt for my colleague's baby shower. She loved it!
I was not sure what to expect. When I opened the box, I was overwhelmed with so many emotions. They did an outstounding job and I know this will be a treasure my daughter will keep forever of her dad. Thank you so much!!
They are so adorable, and well made! Sweet embroidered faces, sturdy stitching and nice seams. They have the logos/pockets from the shirts which is so cute. We really appreciated being contacted to order a second bunny with the extra fabric from our loved one so it wouldn’t be wasted! This is such a special way to save their clothing.
Gave this as a gift to my mother and it was soo special and beautiful. Thank you!
Thank you so much for the wonderful job you did making my special bear, using my Dad’s favorite vest. I have him placed beside my memory lamp with my Dad’s picture. This little bear brings me joy.
IThank you for making the most exquisite bear to memorialize my dad, who passed away 4 years ago. I had kept a few items of his clothing that were sentimental to me and now I have them all in a keepsake that I can pass on….so grateful🙏❤️
Purchased this as a Mother’s Day gift and she was very happy with result. It’s high quality and used the provided garments in an interesting and pleasant way.
Thought the pattern was slightly difficult! Had to rely on my past history of sewing to complete. I did think the woven fusible was a great help because the shirt fabric didn’t fray.
The quilt is exactly what I had envisioned. They did exactly what I asked for. It’s beautiful, high quality and was beautifully packaged. I’m thrilled with it! Thank you for doing this beautiful work.
This bear is one of the best ways to remember your love ones. The bear is so cute and so well made. It is sooo worth the money.
Expectations were exceeded! Not only was the bear made with detail and excellence, but the team was responsive & kept me up to date throughout the entire process. An easy process with an excellent final product!
