I’m pleased to say I’m back up and sewing again!!

This latest creation was made using a football shirt to remember a much loved man who was a huge fan of Millwall.
And as Millwall’s crest is a lion, there was only one choice of animal for this one!! 🦁 xx

Apologies for being quiet on here over the past couple of weeks and apologies to my customers whose clothes I currently have here, who are waiting for their Memory Bears.

I have a kidney infection and unfortunately it’s taking a quite a while to get rid of it.

Thank you for your patience and I am hoping to be back up and running/sewing very soon.

The red jumper was the obvious choice for the robin’s red breast!

Created using baby Rupert’s clothes, this memory creation just had to be a bear!!

And what a handsome bear he is!!

This is a different pattern to my usual memory bear one, but I really wanted to keep the front of waistcoat and bow tie outfit as one piece. Xx
