How sweet is this little lavender bear made and shared by Maureen who told me..."Hi, this was made from the Huggable Teddy Pattern which has been enlarged. I have put some lavender in it as my granddaughter wanted something to help her sleep"What a good idea to add some fragrant herbs to the toy stuffing, great tip Maureen!

🧸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...

Good morning lovelies, this week I had the sweetest message from Mary and her young granddaughter Elle who showed me they'd been crafting some beautiful creations together from some of our patterns. They were all made from Mary's husband's shirts as memory/keepsake toys. I think this Ella Elephant is absolutely gorgeous, and I love the wooden "handmade" buttons too!! Thank you so much for sharing your story Mary and Elle xxI'll show further photos of their other creations another day, so watch this space...  

Look at this fabulous furry bear made by Barbara from the Harley Bear Sewing Pattern.  She said..."Hi, I thought I’d share my pic of the little bear I made from my Mum’s fleece. I used the Harley patchwork bear pattern. The instructions were so easy to follow and I’m really happy with the result. Thank you 😊"I love how this bear looks made with a fleecy fabric, so soft and cuddly! Its inspiring me to make a teddy using some recycled fleeces! Thank you for sharing the idea Barbara xxx
