I used to have a copy of a poem to attach to a home made teddy bear. One made from deceased grandparents clothing for the grandchildren. I only remember the last line, "Remember, she loved you too." I want to make two bears for my nieces and cannot find the poem. I hope someone has a copy and will forward it to me.

I found this poem online. I am not sure if it is the correct one or not. Hope this helps.
Burden Teddy Bear
I'm not a very fancy bear,
I'm plain and rather small.
Even so, someone who loves you
Said I should come to call.
I brought my favorite blanket,
That I snuggle when I'm sad...
It's a present from my Granny,
Made for days when things seem bad.
My Granny always told me,
"Life's like a patchwork quilt...
Just give Jesus all the pieces,
And he'll make a pretty quilt."
Thank you for the poem that may accompany the keepsake teddybear! The poem I was recalling actually is only about 4 lines long, would still like to have that one. However I shall hang on to this one for now! Thank you so much!
Here is a poem that my Mom's cousin put on a Memory Quilt hope it is the one your looking for:
I was once warn by
Someone so dear
Who through loving memory
