Omoide (おもいでくま) [noun]

(Japanese) Omoide - Memory; Kuma - Bear

transforming beloved fabrics and garments into soft, cuddly bears that serve as tangible keepsakes of significant memories.

Omoide Kuma, a heartwarming and unique keepsake crafted to bring your cherished memories to life in the form of a cuddly bear. Each Omoide Kuma is meticulously hand-stitched from fabrics that hold special significance—be it clothing from a newborn’s first days, a favorite shirt of a loved one, or a piece from a special family event.

What makes an Omoide Kuma?

Each Omoide Kuma we create is lovingly crafted from the clothing you hold dear, transformed into a comforting keepsake bear. The outer layer beautifully displays the garments you provide, while the interior is filled with soft polyester, ensuring durability and cuddliness. Optionally, we can include a mix of fabric offcuts from your provided clothing as additional filler, adding a unique and personal touch to every bear. We pride ourselves on our meticulous craftsmanship, using only high-quality materials and well-maintained equipment to ensure your Omoide Kuma can be cherished for years to come.

What they say about us?

Dr. Talitha Sarino, MD

I had been searching for a local memory quilt maker, as most I found were in the US or UK, and I didn't want to risk sending my daughter’s clothes overseas due to frequent reports of lost packages. Fortunately, a friend who had her husband's clothes made into a quilt recommended Yumenui to me. I'm thrilled with the quilt and their involvement, keeping me updated and involving me in key decisions. As a new mom, having a quilt that captures my child's early years is invaluable. I'm so grateful to Yumenui for creating this beautiful piece that holds my daughter's childhood memories.

Ms. Abigail Fernandez

Hello!! Sorry now lang, it’s just today that i opened the box. It’s so beautiful!!! Grabe the love that you poured on each detail, from packaging to the booklet to the quilt itself. You made me so happy i cried when i saw the booklet so perfect to bring sa finland soon! i pray that God will bless you with more clients and projects!

Ms. Alma Lasam

Oh my goodness! Your attention to every detail is amazing! From the packaging, to the personalization and the craftsmanship is really exceptional. Thank you so much Tala.
Now I want more.🥰 I'll find time to check on Angelo's baby clothes pa and I like the bigger quilt! ☺️
This is so unique! I really love it!

Ms. Patricia Lim

Thank you so much! I just gifted it to my husband for our 10 year anniversary. Nasurprise kami pareho. It is beautiful. You have such a gift, Tala! ❤️

Ms. Maridel Cristobal

This is my early #daycare #graduationgift for him as well as a #mothersdaygift #celebration for myself. Sobrang tagal ko tong pinagplanuhan. Since he reached 1 year old naghahanap na ako ng legit #quiltmaker dito sa pinas. 4 years later I finally found one.
Thank you Crystal for making my dream come true. Super happy with my decision to preserve his months old clothes and super happy with the result. So worth the wait and worth every penny spent.

Ms. Pau Romero

I highly recommend Crystal. It was a pleasant experience for me collaborating with her sa entire process. She will make you involved talaga in the creation in asking you details how you want your quilt to turn out.

Ms. Ira Frondozo

Highly recommended! It was an easy and amazing experience for our family. Yumenui will guide you through your journey. Can't thank you enough for all these cherished memories.
