Love My Memory Bunnies!!

After my mothers passing, I wanted to do something special to remember her- these memory bunnies are perfect and will be cherished by her daughters and granddaughters. I am thrilled with how great they turned out, and I smile whenever I look at them.

Bitty Bear

At a loss for words on these bitty bears!! They were done for my little grandsons for Christmas from my mom’s denim capri pants. They are 1yr & 3 yrs old right now. One day they’ll understand. 😢
I have to say that the customer service was past awesome!! She made sure that my order was here for Christmas!! Can’t say enough about my bears and ornaments! So very pleased!! I don’t have a picture to share just yet.

Memory Bear made from one shirt

I had this done for my daughter for Christmas from my mother’s top. She wore this one of the last times that she was able to hold her great grandson. Can’t explain how special this really is. They did such a wonderful job on this!! Very pleased!!

At a loss for words really. I purchased half a dozen of these for my sister, daughters, and nieces. They were made from my mom’s pajama bottoms. They were so fun and bright! These girls were full of tears on Christmas Day. Such a special moment that day! So well done and will continue to use The Patchwork Bear!!

Just wow

I actually am having trouble coming up with the words to describe how happy I am with my order. I was so nervous to send my late mother's clothing out to some strangers to cut them up and make things. I'm so glad I did. Firstly, the Patchwork Team handled everything with cate and respect. They answered all questions I had prior to the order, let me know when they received the clothing so I knew it was safe, had my order weeks before I expected, and despite me not making the deadline for a christmas delivery, STILL had them to me the week before. I gave some special requests and everything came out just beautifully. Thank you. I really cherish these. You used a talent of yours to bring love and joy into the world. Thank you. I'm copying this into all the products i purchased. I bought a lot! 1 bunny, 3 bitty bears, 4 hearts, and 4 birds.

Love the bears

I ordered 3 bears with six items of my husband’s most often worn clothes. I asked for bits of each item to be on each bear and for the logos to be shown wherever possible. The bears were made perfectly as requested. I love my bear and my two adult children love theirs as well. It’s a fabulous way to have their dad around all of the time. The quality is great; I can tell that these will be forever keepsakes. Thank you for creating such an important and special product!

Wedding Keepsake Bears

I made the decision to have my wedding gown made into three keepsake bears for my children. I read the many wonderful reviews from customers who have used The Parchwork Bear and I entrusted them to make these very special gifts and I was not disappointed. The attention to detail and even the care used to take my order confirmed that I had made the right choice. I gifted the bears to my children Christmas morning and they loved the gift. I wasn’t quite sure that as teens they would appreciate the bears but they did and I thought my heart would burst to see how much they loved them. Thank you for creating such a special memory for me and my children.

My Memory Bear

This was a Memory Bear of my Father who recently passed away… I used his Detroit Lions Sleepwear so it’s really oft and every time I look at I will think of my Dad rooting for his favorite team!
I love it

My Mother's Memory Bear

My Mother passed away in September of this year and had a collection of jean jackets and holiday shirts. I sent a selection to Patchwork Bear so that they could make myself, my Dad and my 2 siblings Memory Bears and I just received them last week. And words can not express how much I love them. I gave my Dad his this past weekend and he was amazed by them. He put his on their bed so that he has a connection to her all time. Thanks for the wonderful bears. I love them and appreciate your excellent handiwork.

So emotional!

When I opened the box of the beautiful bitty bears and hearts I was so emotional! The quality is perfect and my husband, Greg's shirts were used in ways I couldn't imagine. The gifts are for his daughters and granddaughter. He died unexpectedly in August and our hearts are broken. These gifts are going to make Christmas so special! Thank you for the lovely workmanship and creativity. God bless you. Merry Christmas!

Previous memorial bear

I didn’t know what to expect and the bear I received looks well-made and so special. Great customer service. Prompt updates. They made sure to have it arrive before Christmas. ;)

Melting our hearts

Absolutely love the bears I received. It was better than I expected. It was made with care and thoughts in mind of what the clothes I sent meant to our family. Thank you so much to the company and to the people that created our 2 bears ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing work!

My stepdad passed away in October and my mom has been devastated ever since. I wanted to do something special for her to have to remember him and this was perfect. I will be giving it to her for Christmas, and I’m confident she will love it. It really looks amazing! You guys did such a great job with it. Thank you so much!

Amazing memory pup

Super cute and perfect! I had them make a pup out of some old dog clothes in memory of my two senior dogs that passed. My husband is going to love his Christmas present.

Memories that last forever!

Definetely a game changer. My dad passed 6 months ago. I decide to give The Patchwork Bear a shot to to turn a shirt into a memorable bear that could last forever for me and my mom. The team of Patchwork did an extraordinary job. The bear came out perfect with an amazing quality and the best cutest ever memory of my dads favorites shirts. Thank You all for what you do. I will absolutely recomend this store.

I could not be more happy!!!

My husband, Jamie, passed away rather unexpectedly in September of this year. While I was going through his clothing for donation there was a shirt that had always been a favorite of mine that I just could not part with. I wasn't sure what I would do with it but I couldn't let it go. Then I heard about Patchwork Bear. I knew immediately that I was going to order a Bear with that favorite shirt. Fortunately, I also had a navy pair of slacks. So I ordered the Bear, sent off the clothes and "Jamie Bear" arrived yesterday. I love it. Thank You Patchwork Bear for making a keepsake that I will always treasure!!!
