Memory Bear

I'm making bear using her clothing. This bear was made using her pink denim pants and a pink t-shirt. 



Hi, sorry its been a long time since I've posted anything on my blog. 

My dear sweet mother passed away last year on September 1, 2025. She was going to be 100 in 6 weeks and was looking forward to celebrating her big day. I guess God had other plans and our mother had a stroke during the night and never woke up. 

All of these bears are made with my mother's clothes. Each bear is approx. 161/2 " - 17" from head to toe. 

 The last 15 or so years she liked painting on wood projects. So much of her clothes had specks of paint on them. Most of these bears has little specks of paint and my family is thrilled to had the paint on the bears. I sure a little glue is on the jeans and knit tops she liked to wear as well. 

My mother made over 75 handmade books. 

I have included ribbon around the necks of all the bears before giving them out to our family. I've made 13 bears and have three more ready to sew up.
