And now on to the beautiful bride!

This pretty bear is dressed in the stunning bridal outfit.

The suited bear now has a friend!

This one was a challenge in a different way!
I had used the lapels from the suit for the previous bear, so had to draft a pattern to create new lapels for this one. Xx

Well this one was a challenge and a half!

I received a request to create a Memory Bear, to remember a much loved Dad, using his Father of the Bride outfit.
However this one was a bit different as I was asked if i could make a bear to look as though he was wearing the outfit.

And here’s the finished result!
I’m really pleased with how he came out!!

Now onto the next one, a matching bear for his granddaughter. ❤️ xx

I’m pleased to say I’m back up and sewing again!!

This latest creation was made using a football shirt to remember a much loved man who was a huge fan of Millwall.
And as Millwall’s crest is a lion, there was only one choice of animal for this one!! 🦁 xx

Apologies for being quiet on here over the past couple of weeks and apologies to my customers whose clothes I currently have here, who are waiting for their Memory Bears.

I have a kidney infection and unfortunately it’s taking a quite a while to get rid of it.

Thank you for your patience and I am hoping to be back up and running/sewing very soon.

Another School Leaver Bear completed!

Using blazers is always a bit more of a challenge, but I like to use the lapel on one side of the tummy, and on the other side of this one, is the school logo from the top pocket.

School Leaver Bear season is in full swing!!

If you would like to be added to the waiting list for a Leaver’s Bear, or want to be organised and get your order in now if you have a child leaving school next summer, please drop me a line.

The striped tie worked really well as an extra addition to this latest bear ❤️ xx

Following on from my last post, with the memory bear created to remember a much loved Nanny, these cushions were created from the same special clothing.
The red jumper was the obvious choice for the robin’s red breast!
