When you want to keep the memories but cut down on the clutter, we turn your clothes into a memory bear, quilt or other keepsake that beautifully saves all your life's most meaningful moments. Clothes, like photos, songs and even smells- hold memories from the times when we wore them: baby's coming home outfit, college t-shirts, team jerseys, grandma's favorite robe, even wedding dresses.
The Patchwork Bear has been trusted to turn your favorite clothes into keepsakes since 2005 and understand your clothing is irreplaceable- full of stains and memories. We take the utmost care of your clothes in every step of the process from receiving the clothes, to design, to creation and delivery.
Have too many clothes saved? Our Memory Clothes Quilts are the perfect solution for saving your memories in one heirloom quilt. We make two types of quilts: T-SHIRT QUILTS and MEMORY QUILTS. T-shirt quilts are made from 20 (or 25) t-shirts cut to 12x12 inch squares to make your quilt. Memory Quilts are made from different size/types of clothes cut to 6x6 inch squares.
For memory animals, it takes about 4-6 weeks to complete AFTER we receive your clothes. For memory quilts, wedding keepsakes and bags, it takes about 8-12 weeks to complete AFTER we receive your clothes.

After what seemed like forever my son’s memory bear finally arrived! Jenn went above and beyond to make sure his bear was perfect! The hand embroidery on the bear is absolutely amazing! She took my sons first outfits and made them into something Matthew can carry around forever! This is something I recommend doing 100 % she doesn’t just do bears she does quilts and other animals. I can’t wait to have her turn my wedding dress into a bear and a quilt someday! If you ever want to support a small business I definitely recommend the patchwork bear! And if your bear or other item needs a repair

Absolutely five stars. I researched other vendors to craft a memory keepsake as a gift, and chose Patchwork Bear. Jennifer and her team created an adorable, beautifully-crafted bear to my specifications. The quality of their work and attention to detail is top-notch. They provide a great service from start to finish, even carefully packaging my leftover fabric scraps to return alongside the bear. They clearly care about what they do and are great at it.

We are so pleased with the baby Quilt (s) from the Patchwork Bear! They turned my daughter's wedding dress into 2 beautiful baby blankets and embroidered their wedding date in the corner. They were responsive and were able to complete these blankets in less than 4 weeks. They were packaged sooo beautifully and they even returned the unused pieces! Awesome keepsake, thank you.
