Baby clothes can become Teddy bears

I take baby clothes and turn them into teddy bears! Those sweet clothes go from being carefully folded in a drawer or bin to being enjoyed on a bed or chair.

Cherished clothes can become Teddy Bears

The clothing of a loved one can also become a cherished item for a child or grandchild.

My process
I lay out all the pieces of clothing that the client wants in the bear, using a template of the pieces, taking note of what is on each piece. I incorporate other fabrics, such as sports team prints, to enhance the ddesign. I add a stabilizer to the fabrics to keep them from stretching.

Then I assemble the bear and stuff it with polyester fiberfill. The bear can be made soft and mushy, or solid and sturdy
