Using JOSHI as a memory bear pattern

Memory bears are sewn from a loved one’s clothing or other fabric of sentimental value. Usually, you make these keepsakes in remembrance of a loved one so that they provide comfort during times of grief. A memory bear can also help ease the pain of missing someone who is not with you at that moment, or simply be a cuddly reminder of the person you love. With our memory bear pattern sewing such a keepsake is explained in great detail, with some useful tips on working with garment als the basic material for the teddy bear.

Important: NO EMBROIDERY MACHINE is required to applique the face elements! You can do the appliqués with a simple sewing machine and a double-sided iron-on adhesive webbing like Heat’n Bond. We explain how to do this in great detail in the sewing instructions. You can also find video instructions for doing appliqués with a sewing machine on our Youtube channel. However, if you HAVE an embroidery machine, you can also buy the sewing pattern with the matching teddy bear face embroidery design!
