⛳️ I’VE SWAPPED MY SEWING MACHINE FOR A GOLF CLUB… BUT DON’T WORRY, I’LL BE BACK WITH YOUR BEARS TOMORROW! 🧸🤣

I’ve been on a little golfing break this weekend, enjoying some time out on the course and giving my sewing machine a well-deserved rest! ⛳️💚

But don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about your memory bears… I’ll be back in the sewing room tomorrow, ready to get stuck into your beautiful keepsakes. 🧵🧸

There’s nothing quite like a little break to recharge the batteries, and I’m looking forward to getting back to doing what I love. ❤️

So, who else has been enjoying the weekend? Have you been out and about, relaxing, or making the most of the sunshine? ☀️

And if you’ve been thinking about having a memory bear made, my messages are always open. 🧸💌

Zouch Memory Bears — turning treasured clothing into keepsakes to love forever. ❤️

14/09/2026

🔥 THESE SHIRTS ARE ABOUT TO BECOME SOMETHING VERY SPECIAL… ❤️⚽️

A few Nottingham Forest shirts have landed on my sewing table… and I already know I’m going to LOVE making these bears! 🧸❤️

Being a Nottingham girl myself, there’s something extra special about turning Forest shirts into memory bears. ❤️⚽️

Just imagine having your favourite shirt turned into a keepsake you can treasure forever — rather than leaving it hanging in the wardrobe.

THE SHIRT YOU LOVE. THE MEMORIES YOU KEEP. THE BEAR YOU CAN HUG. 🧸❤️

Keep watching to see these shirts before they get their little bear makeover! 👀

If you’ve got a special football shirt that deserves a new lease of life, drop me a message. 📩

COME ON YOU REDS! 🌳❤️

🚨 A LITTLE MEMORY BEAR UPDATE… PLEASE READ IF YOU’VE ENQUIRED! 🧸❤️

If you’ve messaged me about having a memory bear made, I’ve added you to my list and you’ve told me you’d like me to make one for you… but your clothing hasn’t reached me yet, this is for you! 👇

I’m getting busier and busier, which is absolutely amazing 🥰 but it also means I’m having to be a little more organised with my bookings.

From now on, I’ll be asking for a deposit to secure your place in my order book.

The reason is simple…

I don’t want to turn someone away because my diary is full, only to find that someone who has asked me to make a bear decides not to go ahead and never sends their clothing.

I completely understand that sorting through clothing can take time — especially when those items have so much meaning ❤️. You don’t need to send everything straight away, but if you want me to keep your place, I’ll need a deposit to secure it.

🧸 If you’ve already spoken to me and are waiting to send your items, please drop me a message and I can confirm your place.

And if you’ve been thinking about having a memory bear made but haven’t got around to enquiring yet… please don’t leave it too long! My spaces are filling quickly, especially with Christmas getting closer. 🎄

Every bear I make is made from your precious clothing and memories, and I’m so grateful that you trust me to create them. ❤️

Want to secure your place? Send me a message and let’s get your bear booked in. 🧸✨

ONE SHIRT. SO MANY MEMORIES. ❤️

Men’s shirt bears just have to be one of my favourite bears to make… they always look so smart! 🥰🐻

This beautiful shirt has been turned into a very special keepsake bear — but I didn’t stop there.

I also managed to make two little hearts for family members, giving them each something to treasure from the same shirt. ❤️❤️

And this is something I really want people to know…

✨ You don’t need bags and bags of clothing to create meaningful keepsakes.

Sometimes one much-loved shirt, jumper or piece of clothing is more than enough to create something truly special.

It’s not about how much fabric you have…
It’s about the memories stitched into it. 🧵❤️

If you have a piece of clothing that means the world to you but you just can’t bear to part with it, pop me a message. Let’s see what we can create from it. 🐻✨

🚨 STOP SCROLLING… CHRISTMAS IS COMING AND I’M ALREADY PANICKING! 🎄😂

I KNOW… it’s only just turned autumn! 🍂
But apparently Christmas didn’t get the memo and it’s already sneaking up on us! 🤦‍♀️🎅

I’ve already got Christmas orders coming in, and if previous years are anything to go by, my December spaces will disappear FAST! 🧸🎁

So if you’re thinking about having a memory bear or keepsake made for Christmas, NOW is the time to get your name on my list.

And here’s the best bit…

👉 You DON’T need to have all your clothing sorted yet!

Just reserve your place with a deposit and then you’ve got the next couple of months to rummage through wardrobes, find those special pieces and get them to me.

🎄 Christmas present = SORTED
🧸 Precious memories = PRESERVED
😅 December panic = AVOIDED!

Once my Christmas spaces are full, they’re FULL — there’s only one of me and I haven’t quite worked out how to clone myself yet! 😂

📩 Want a bear under the tree this Christmas? Message me NOW to secure your space.

Don’t say I didn’t warn you… 😉🎄

🍑 I’ve been asked to fix some strange things over the years… but THIS one had a very baggy bottom! 😂⛳️

Sometimes my repairs take me into places I never expected… and today’s patient was a rather special golf club head cover who was in desperate need of a little cosmetic surgery! 🤣

My lovely friend from the golf club brought him to me because the elastic in his bottom had given up the ghost. He was looking a little worse for wear and wasn’t sitting properly in the golf bag.

So… after a little bottom tightening operation 😂🪡✂️… he’s back to his old self!

🍑 A nice firm bottom
⛳️ Sitting perfectly in the golf bag
❤️ And ready to get back out on the course!

But this wasn’t just any golf club cover. It had been bought on a golfing holiday a few years ago, so it had lots of special memories attached to it — and had even become a bit of a lucky addition to the golf game! 🍀

There was no way this little chap was going in the bin!

I absolutely love being able to repair things that have a story behind them. ❤️

And honestly… I never know what’s going to come through my sewing room door next! 😂

What’s the strangest thing you’ve ever had repaired? 👇

🚨 STOP SCROLLING… I WANT TO KNOW WHAT YOU’VE BEEN UP TO! 👀😂

It’s Bank Holiday weekend, so I’m nosey… 👇

Are you actually relaxing, or are you like me and can’t sit still?! 🤣

I’ve been keeping busy in the sewing room making curtains and cushions 🧵✂️ — because apparently Bank Holiday means “find another sewing project” in my world! 😂

It’s been lovely doing something a little different from my usual memory bears, and I’m really enjoying seeing these come together. 🥰

But enough about my sewing…

👇 WHAT HAVE YOU BEEN UP TO THIS BANK HOLIDAY?

☀️ Out enjoying the sunshine?
🍔 BBQs & family time?
🚗 Days out?
🌿 Gardening?
🛋️ Doing absolutely NOTHING?
🧵 Crafting?
😴 Catching up on sleep?

Tell me below — I genuinely want to know! ❤️

And be honest… who else said they were going to have a relaxing weekend and somehow ended up doing jobs around the house?! 😂👇
