We make memory bears from clothing. Send us your loved one’s favorite clothing and we will make a jointed memory bear to hug and hold. A memory bear can be made from just about any type of clothing or fabric-based item. Each of our memory bears is made with love and attention to detail. Our bears have jointed arms and legs so they can sit independently. We use strong, acrylic safety-lock eyes and plastic noses.

- (Our non-jointed memory bear is intended to be soft and huggable. Our non-jointed bear is only available in 16″ size, however without the joints the bear is cuddlier and squishier. Without joints, the bear doesn’t sit on its own, but it is very huggable for younger children who want something to cuddle and sleep with.)

Additional Information
Important!: The premium glass eyes are NOT child safe. They are blown glass on the end of a wire. Although they are securely attached to the bear, a child pulling and twisting them can break them off and they can become a choking hazard.
How much fabric does it take to make a bear? I can usually get the following:
Standard men’s shirt = Two 12″-14″ bears or one 16-18″ bear
Standard woman’s blouse = Two 12″-14″ bears or one 16″ bear
Standard pair of pants = Two 12″-14″ bears or one 16″ bear
Full length bath robe = Four to six 14″ bears, Two to three 16-18″ bears, two 20-24″ bears
I have a couple of shirts from my late husband and would like bears for each of my grandchildren. How can you use them to create five bears the same? I can use quilting and patchwork techniques that incorporate the different fabrics into each bear.
Below are photos of past memory bears we have created for customers.
