Memory Pig made from a loved ones clothing
This memory pig is made from a shirt or the clothing of someone who has passed or matured. It is a perfect way to memorialize a loved one! The pig is a excellent size to hold at night or display on a shelf. It can make a very touching gift for a friend or family member who has lost someone they love.
This pig was 100% designed and created by me ,Sunny Rodriguez. Sorry, I am not selling the pattern for others to sew at this time.
The pigs are 15" from the heel to the top of the head. When in a sitting position ,they are 11" from the bottom to the top of the head. We do not offer the option to scale down the size of the pattern. All pigs are cut from the same pattern size.
The stomach measures 8" wide by 6" tall. If you have a shirt you would like the logo on the bear, the logo must fit within these dimensions. Sadly anything bigger would be cut off but could be placed in other places on the bear.***Compatible Fabrics***
These bears can be made from button down shirts, Pants, Hoodies, Uniforms, Sweatshirts, blankets and sweaters with very tight stitching.**Fabrics that require stabilizer **
Tshirts , golf polos , chiffon dresses, women's polyester shirts, thermals, knits, heavily worn, Thin or See-Through fabrics will require stabilizer. You can find the option for stabilizer in my shop for a $15 charge per pig.No two pigs will look alike. These bears are handmade. The fabric will dictate how the bear will look. Firm fabrics like denim will make a stiff solid bear while a pig made from a sweatshirt will make a softer cuddly pig. If you are curious if a fabric will work please contact me!
Fabrics that are all black are not reccomended. The nose is embroidered in black thread.Leather jackets, blazers, coats made of down feathers, and fur coats are not recommended for this item.
Pigs will recieve collars only if the shirt had a collar. Other garmets that do not come with a collar or button down strip will receive a bow. Message me if you want the fabric to be a specific color. Or you can send another item of clothing to make the bow with.
I require at least an adult large size shirt to complete. Clothing can shrink in the wash or run smaller in size. I see this more often in women's clothing. I would suggest a women's XL to complete.
Medium or smaller shirts will not make a pig. However, you can provide more then one shirt to help complete the pig.. I suggest long sleeved shirts to be sent.
I can also purchase matching fabric to help complete a pig.Embroidery
Embroidery can be placed on the chest or foot. The foot can only have 6 letters or 3 rows of 6 letters. The chest can have Name birthdate and passing date. Please be very sure about the correct spelling of name or accurate date, you give me to embroider. I can only redo an embroidered piece if there is enough fabric available. There will be a $5 charge to correct any errors.
Please provide your embroidery information in the message to seller section. You can also label the clothing that you send.
Please write the desired embroidery in the message to seller section when checking out.
The pig's right foot is on the left side of the picture. Please provide embroidery with the right foot first ,when purchasing embroidery on both feet. For example
Bob Jones
Right foot would be Bob, left foot would be Jones.Memory items are made from clothing that has been washed an worn. They can be fragile. These items are not a toy. They are meant to be on display.
