Memory/Memorial Plush Teddy Bear Made From Your Clothes
A Memory Stuffed Bear is also a great way to create a meaningful memory. I can make a toy from clothing from your child that commemorates special occasions, or from an absent loved one, be it grandma's favourite blouse, grandpa's favourite sweater, auntie's best dress, or almost anything else that carries a memory.
Please note that the teddy bear pictured is a sample only: the design will be the same, but the fabric will come from the clothing that you send me.
I can use almost anything to make this toy - onesies should be 6-12 months size or larger, toddler tops should be size 2 or larger. Cotton, cotton jersey, fleece, sweatshirts and wool are all great materials for the toys. I cannot use thick wool (found in coats), leather, spandex, denim or bathing suits. Clothing with an all-over print works best.
To start the process, simply send me a minimum of 4 pieces of clothing, and a maximum of 12 for variety in the body and ears, and I will send back your bear within 3 weeks of receipt. A minimum of 2 adult pieces are necessary, although you can send more for variety.
The finished product is approximately 14 inches tall, and is stuffed with polyester fibrefill for a soft, cuddly teddy bear.
The design is from a beautiful pattern by FunkyFriendsFactory (https://www.etsy.com/shop/FunkyFriendsFactory).
