Handmade in Australia, each Memory Bear is lovingly sewn from your clothing or fabric that holds sentimental meaning.
At approximately 50 cm tall, this large bear offers extra room to showcase your most cherished fabrics, from baby clothes and uniforms to pyjamas, shirts, or blankets. Each panel tells a piece of your story, stitched together to create a one-of-a-kind keepsake that’s uniquely yours.
