Have your favorite baby pajamas turned into a special memory bear, horse, or other animal. Match the memory horse's eye color to your own child's for any face option except safety eyes.
The pictures are samples of some keepsake stuffed animals I've made to give you an idea of some memory animals I've sewn. Each horse has an individual look based on the pajamas you want the animal made of. If there are any special things on the fabric I try to incorporate it into the horse. The bigger the embellishment, the greater chance that an additional pair of pajamas will need to be sent.
How it works:
1) After purchasing, you will send the clothing to me
2) My processing time starts at the time I receive the clothing
3) When the keepsake bear/animal is finished I will ship it to you
It usually takes less than 6 weeks (from the time I receive the clothes) to send the finished horse to you. Processing time depends on how many projects are in line ahead of you at the time of purchase. Please contact me if you need a more accurate time estimate.
Finished horse size starts around 10″ in sitting position (stretchier fabrics make the horse bigger). This horse requires 1 pair of pajamas size 6 months or larger or 2 pairs of pajamas size newborn or larger. The horse needs extra fabric for its mane. You may send an additional pair of pajamas in any size for the mane or I can supply the mane fabric if you prefer. Depending on your pajamas (e.g. directional fabric, large pictures/embellishments, etc.) an extra pair may need to be sent. Please contact me before sending pajamas and I will help you figure out what is needed.
The horse's face can be made with safety eyes, permanent fabric marker, or appliqued felt (with or without eyelashes). Examples of each are pictured.
