Memory Necktie Pillow

$ 150.00

Some neckties hold more than style.
They hold the story of the person who wore them.

A favorite tie from your dad.
The tie he wore to work every day.
The one he saved for special occasions.

Our Memory Necktie Pillow transforms meaningful neckties into a keepsake pillow you can keep on a bed, chair, or couch. It’s a way to preserve those ties and the memories connected to them in a piece you can see and hold every day.

Each pillow is handmade in our studio using the neckties you send us, carefully arranged and sewn into a one-of-a-kind memory pillow.

Like all Patchwork Bear keepsakes, your pillow is created with the same care and attention we’ve used for more than 20 years helping families preserve the stories behind their clothing.
