    Here is one I made my grandaughter years ago. As you can see she was a baby there and she is now 10 years old. She loves this bear. They even washed it.

    There is a teddy bear pattern here. Not exactly like the one you pictured but maybe you could use it as a beginning reference.

    Here a site where you can download a pattern but you may have to modify it.http://www.howjoyful.com/2010/05/how...l-and-pattern/

    You can use any pattern for a bear and just cut your pieces differenly. I am going to try to make another one in patchwork style. I guess you can say I got inspired by all the pretty pictures that website had of the different memory bears.

    Memory Bears that I know of (I know a gal that makes them) are made with shirts/blouses etc. of a loved one passed on. Made for the family members to remember them by. She made ones for her family when her mom passed the one she made for herself was out of 3 different tops that she loved on her mom. And no she won't give up the pattern.

    I agree with the rest of the posts that you can change your pattern pieces to make the bear look like the one in the picture.

    Just thought I'd add this.
