Handmade Keepsake Bears
Small Local Business

With Cotton and Care is a slow-made brand. Every bear is handmade in small batches by me in Suffolk. We don't mass produce or outsource to large factories, which means less waste, a gentler pace and a personal touch in every stitch.
Every bear is completely handmade meaning no two will be the same. They may have slight imperfections - a misaligned seam here or a puckered paw there - but each one is full of charm and made with love.
Perfectly Imperfect:
Hi, my name is Victoria and I'm the founder of With Cotton and Care. I wanted to create a brand that celebrates what others might consider flaws and bring handmade charm to everyone. I received my first sewing machine age 9 as a Christmas present. That same day, after Christmas dinner, my auntie helped me sew my first ever project. It was a little bag. Since then, I've taken textiles at GCSE and dabbled in clothes making but it think I've finally found my passion in the world of sewing, and I hope you can all feel that joy through the keepsake bears I make. Thank you for reading!
How to shop
We work on a "drop" system. When a new batch of bears is ready, a sale date will be announced before the drop goes live. Don't worry though, there will be multiple drops throughout the year!
