Memory Bears

One of our local funeral homes has a "memory bear" program. Anyone who has lost a loved one can bring in an article of clothing from the deceased to be made into a bear. I was invited to sew with this group last evening. It's quite a touching program and I felt honored to participate.

Here is the bear I made. The shirt was brought in by a Mother who had lost her son.



I kept one of the pockets from the shirt for the back side of the bear.

Here I am 'stuffing'!
