Kit Bear
£125.00 inc. tax
Choose the most precious items of clothing and I'll handcraft adorable teddies for you to treasure.
Why just pack away your favourite babygrows - when will you ever get them out to look at them? These expertly handmade creatures feature patches from any sentimental fabrics, from babygrows to school uniforms or even Grandad's cap.
Kit Bear needs one (or more, if you prefer) adult garment or five baby/child garments (based on 6-9 month sleepsuits). Kit Bear is available in two sizes:
Large measures approx. 30cm/12" sitting, 45cm/18" standing
Small measures approx 22cm/8.5" sitting, 30cm/12" standing (suitable for smaller baby clothes)
Please do ask if you'd like any help deciding which garments would work best from your selection. All the fabrics are lined during the process, so even delicate fabrics like chiffon and knits can be used.
Included in the price:
- Add an extra personal touch with names, birth details or a short verse or message. You can even include photo patches or a printed patch with your replicated handwriting at an additional cost.
- You will receive full Design Consultation and I will use my 'artistic licence', however I am more than happy to work with you if you have particular design features in mind, items you’d like me to do something special with or favourites you have seen in my previous work. I can update you with my ideas before I start work, or you can choose a surprise and let me decide what will work particularly well.

Stuffed with a little magic along with premium grade carded hollow fibre filling and while I cannot CE certify these keepsakes (I would have to burn your fabrics!), eyes, noses and joints are always “safety” standard and carefully fixed in place. Where needed, fabrics are lined to ensure their stability and durability, and seams are triple-stitched for extra strength.
Once you have placed your order I will get in touch with your order confirmation and further information about where to send your fabrics and by when. The current waiting time is approx. 12 months, although I can often accommodate if you need your order sooner.
If you need your keepsake by a particular date, please contact me before ordering and add a note to your order in the checkout.
If you have chosen to book with a deposit, I will send an invoice for the balance of your order. The invoice will be via PayPal, and you can also pay with a credit or debit card in instalments to suit you. The full balance will be due no later than 2 weeks before your order is scheduled to be made.
If you change your mind about any of the details after you have ordered, please just get in touch. I'm happy even to swap to an entirely different keepsake. Any difference in price can easily be refunded or invoiced.
CHARITY DONATION
All keepsakes now include a donation to your choice of three charities - Hope House/Ty Gobaith Children's Hospice, St David's Hospice or Idlewild Animal Sanctuary. You can find more information about the charities here. This donation is at no extra cost to you, and you can choose the charity to which you'd like to donate at the checkout when you're placing your order.
SAFETY NOTICE
My patchwork keepsakes are made with clients’ own sentimental fabrics. There is an exclusion in the Toy Safety Directive for "dolls for adult collectors" which means that they do not have to be CE marked as a toy. To CE test an item, it must be made from the same fabrics each and every time and that fabric must be tested (including burning). Meeting the requirements of EN71-3 would therefore not be possible. All fillings, wadding, stuffing, eyes, zips etc conform to British safety standards. Because I cannot fire-test clients’ own fabrics prior to using them, there is no way to CE mark my keepsakes and they are therefore sold to adult collectors as keepsakes only, not toys. They are not made to be played with and I am not liable for any damage or misshaping caused by being handled and/or played with. All "external" elements such as clothing will be stitched in place and are not removable.
