Crafty News — keepsake memory bears

Happy Sunday Heavenly Stitchers, I hope you're all having a peaceful day.As you can see, Dawn has been busy once again making these lovely furry keepsake bears from an old bath robe. The Patchwork Bear sewing pattern requires about one fat quarter of fabric for each bear so there was more than enough to make these three, plus plenty left over for a cosy matching cushion as well! Thank you for sending in the photo Dawn and keep up the good work!All Teddy Bear Patterns #myfabricheaven #bathrobebears #keepsakepatterns #memorybears

Happy Friday Heavenly Stitchers! Where did that week go???Today I have some new photos to show you, shared by Katy who has been busy making her son a memory primary school leavers bear using the Harley Patchwork Bear Sewing Pattern. I love the styling and the placement of the badges... she tells me the bear was a huge hit with her little boy! Such a good idea for recycling worn-out school uniform and a lovely way to remember a tender chapter in life!#myfabricheaven #keepsakebear #sewingteddies #schoolkeepsake

Today I have this little cutie to show you made by Sheenagh using the Patchwork Bear Pattern. She made him for her grandson as a memory bear of his Grandad. I love the way she has created the eyes and nose - she made the nose using a shoelace! A truly unique, one of a kind, memory bear! Thank you for sharing him Sheenagh 🧸🧵https://www.myfabricheaven.com#myfabricheaven #memorybearkeepsake #sewingpattern #handmadebear

🧸Today I have some special memory bears to show you, made by Katy from the Harley Bear Sewing Pattern. She told me "The bears had a very special part to play in taking the owner's Grandad on his final journey. Thank you to My Fabric Heaven for a perfect pattern..." "It's a lovely pattern to work from"🥰  What a sad but poignant story. I'm sure your gorgeous bears will continue to give them lots of comforting hugs, a lovely reminder of their Grandad that they can keep and treasure! Thank you for sharing Katy, these bears are just beautiful!! xxx...

This colourful pair were shared by Joanne who made them using the Harley Bear & Lacy Bunny Sewing Patterns. 🧸🐇She said... " My little Memory Harley Bear and Lacy Bunny. Both made for my children from their late Grandmas clothes... I really love the patterns, each one ends up feeling so...
