Memory Bears

I decided to teach myself a new skill, so over the last few months I've been learning to make jointed teddy bears! It's been a fun process, and I learn a little more with each one. I'm set up to make memory bears now, so if that interests you, you can find all the information here! I've also got a Facebook page set up so I can collect photos in one place, and answer any questions you may have. 


Bears can be made completely from sentimental fabrics, or I can make plush bears wearing the fabrics in a little (unremovable) outfit.


I've been having fun searching for blankets and plush fabrics at the local thrift stores - this one is made from a blanket and some upholstery scraps.


Here are the 3 sizes together. The small bear is 7" tall in a seated position and 11" standing. The medium bear is 9" tall in a seated position and 13" standing. The large bear is 11.5" tall in a seated position and 16" standing. 

I hope  these will become treasured keepsakes! Please message or email me if you're interested in something customized. I'll be making some holiday ones as well! 

Thanks for stopping by!

  1. Beautiful bears, Dina, and I love that you are recycling fabrics to make them, as well as being prepared to make them from special fabrics when required
