Bitty Bear

$ 78.00
off

 

It's a smaller version of our much loved Patchwork Memory Bear! 

Measuring just 11 inches (vs 17 inches for the Original Memory Bear) this cutie has a soft minky nose, embroidered eyes and perfectly sized to tote around. 

Due to the smaller size of this bear, we do not recommend using clothes with graphics since they will be cut too small and be unreadable. Personalization or add-ons not available on this item.

We use only one article of clothing for your bitty bear but can incorporate more than one for orders of 2 or more bears if requested.

If you have clothes with graphics like t-shirts, please order the ORIGINAL MEMORY BEAR

A Gift from Grammy

My mother passed away in October. I was so happy with the Biity Bears that were made from her clothing. I gave them to her four great grandchildren as Christmas presents from beloved "Grammy". The bears are beautifully made and I would highly recommend doing this, for now the children have this special gift to cherish forever. Thank you, Jen and your wonderful staff for making the bears with love, so that now the kids have something to love for years to come from their great-grandmother. With great appreciation, Joanne DeGoria

Amazing company!!

This company was exceptional to work with! I ordered nine bitty bears and bunnies, nine hearts, and eight birds in total. I pinned detailed notes on certain clothing items. Each item was crafted with intentionality. I appreciate the creativity that was put in as well. Team member, Meghan personally reached out to me to ensure items were crafted as requested. Leftover clothes were nicely folded and placed in a sealed bag with the package containing the bears, bunnies, birds, and hearts. I will upload pictures of bitty bears and bunnies once family members open their gifts at Christmas. These keepsakes are a great way for my family members and I to feel close to our Mother who passed away nearly 6 months ago. Losing our Mother is devastating. Supporting a company who cares about people and memories helps through the grieving process. If you are looking for a way to have a loved ones clothing turned into a memorable keepsake, this is the company to support.

Thank you

I absolutely loved the bears. I made a mistake to order from another company, their job was terrible, I reached out to Jennifer from the Patchwork and told her the terrible work the other company did, she and her team took a very challenging job to make my bears look amazing. I had ordered from the patchwork bear before and their work is impeccable. I regret it so much not ordering from them the second time. I highly recommend the Patchwork bear
The bears came absolutely beautiful, I can't thank them enough for saving the pieces of my loved one. ❤️
Thank you..
