Some great photos Annie, mother use to make those tiny bears. She loved using scraps. Love your Memory cushion. Great idea, I have several of Dad's sweaters, so maybe I can try this. As for buttons, I've seen cute ideas on pinterest, long legs/arms on little bodies. Buttons are fascinating, I've a few books on history of them. If I see ideas I'll send to you. Enjoy a good weekend.Sylvia/LittleTreasureshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15555765276083157280noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-20959195863784838242021-07-07T23:38:48.454+01:002021-07-07T23:38:48.454+01:00Your latest memory bears are fantastic, Annie.

What a smart little trio they are! The memory cushion is also quite amazing. I can see that a huge amount of warmth and good feelings flow both ways between you and the recipients of these amazing creations - being able to bless people in the way you do. What a gift.<br /><br />No idea of what to do with the buttons - eyes for memory bears? <br /><br />I am glad little Theo is on the mend. It's hard for a little boy to be inactive - they are energy factories!<br /><br />Happy WOYWW,<br />Shoshi x 19Shoshihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00028185699225457125noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-19668580812550936642021-07-07T20:55:13.621+01:002021-07-07T20:55:13.621+01:00You are so busy with Memory Bears and Cushions as ...You are so busy with Memory Bears and Cushions as usual but you still managed to find time to spend with the little wounded soldier.<br />Good news that he is healing well - what a brave little soldier he was.<br />Hugs, Neet 11 xNeethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13279125547309537517noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5769800031871534836.post-86773066779617587802021-07-07T20:43:52.340+01:002021-07-07T20:43:52.340+01:00Love the tiny bears-I don’t know where you find th...Love the tiny bears-I don’t know where you find the patience!
