Make a DIY Giant Outdoor Matching Game

July 3, 2015 by Dana Hinders

DIY-Giant-Lawn-Memory-Game-600x399

Since my family isn’t really into traditional sporting activities, I love the idea of games we can play outside. Purchased outdoor games can be kind of pricey, but this homemade matching game looks easy, affordable, and fun for all ages. It could even be customized to fit a specific party theme, since you’re simply using stenciled images to create the tiles. Visit Studio DIY for the full project instructions.

The Memory Bear Pattern is one of those projects that is more than just a fun sewing activity—it’s a way to hold onto meaningful moments. Whether you’re creating a bear from a loved one’s old clothes, baby clothes, or other sentimental fabrics, this pattern allows you to craft a truly unique memento.

The pattern is designed for ease, making it a perfect project for anyone with basic sewing skills. At 14” tall, the bear is the ideal size to cuddle and display, and the pattern includes easy-to-follow instructions to help you create a special keepsake that will last a lifetime.

This Memory Bear Pattern stands out because of its simplicity and accessibility. The 14” bear is not only easy to sew, but it’s also the perfect size for holding onto the details of the fabric. The pattern includes clear, step-by-step instructions, so even beginners can make a beautifully crafted bear that will be cherished for years.

At Craftgossip, we believe in the importance of supporting independent creators and small businesses. The Memory Bear Pattern is just one example of the incredible craftsmanship and care Etsy sellers put into their work.
