I purchased quite a few Two-Shirt Memory Bears, and they are all beautifully sewn and adorable with the artistic design from the two shirts. I highly recommend Patchwork Bear.
3 adorable bears beautifully made from Dads t shirts! Just in time for Dads Day !
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
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!
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.
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.
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!
