5 out of 5 starsRuth has made SEVERAL bears for me and this one matches the others I had made 7 years ago!!!!!I TOTALLY love this bear!!! She was available for all the details and it is great!!!I know my newest granddaughter will not get the meaning but Chris will be floored!!! I found one of my late husbands scrub shirt by accident and figured there was no way to replicate what I had made for the rest of my large family but SHE DID!!!

5 out of 5 starsI had 2 memory bears made and couldn’t be happier. One of the bears was for my daughter and one for me. They were made in memory of my son with some sweat pants and pajama pants if his. The embroidery is beautiful and they both turned out beautiful . We love our new bears and I will be ordering another when I find out what my grandson wants. Thank you so very much Ruth ❤️❤️
