Memory bears, also known as keepsake bears, are made from clothes that are cherished by you and your loved ones. Memory Bears represent your loved one in a huggable and tangible way for you to remember your loved one.

I can make a memory bear out of almost all fabric except for the following:
*Leather
*Plastic “faux” leather
*Fur

Please note that these memory bears are not toys, they are keepsakes that can handle a gentle hug when needed. They do contain safety eyes in a safety nose however I do NOT advertise my memory bear products as “child or pet friendly”.

I’ve had the honor and privilege to share the art of sewing in small batches with 4-H, Girlscouts, and Homeschoolers over the years. Many individuals have been along my side as I offer one-of-a-kind primitive Santa’s, dolls, pilgrims and even honey bees! As well as through memorial gifts such as memory bears.

Death and Sewing
I look back over my life and see how instrumental sewing has been in the journey of healing and dealing with death. When I suffered a miscarriage in 1993, I took to hand embroidering as a means to deal with the internal sadness. Little did I know that this type of healing activity would come back into my life in a bigger way.

In 2001 I had the devastating heartbreak that no mother wants to experience, but many of us deal with, and that was the unexpected passing of my youngest daughter. Hannah was 14 months old when she passed away from cardiomyopathy and I haven’t stop sewing, in fact, I believe this is one of the driving forces that is pushed me into forming this LLC.

There’s something healing that happens through the art form of sewing. I am now the owner and founder of Sewing with S.T.E.A.M, LLC. Our services are not found in a physical place because we bring fun to you! ​

I am the mother of six children, two in heaven and four that are now adults; two of which have unique abilities.

I believe we are all created with creativity within ourselves and it sometimes takes a special person to help bring those skills to life.
