About us

 

Hi everyone!  I’m Karina, the mom and maker behind Bitsy Memories right here in New York City. 
A little about how this all started…

Years ago, I had my own clothing company where I designed patterns and sewed custom dresses and skirts from scratch. Life got busy with kids, and my sewing machine sat quietly for a long time.
Then one day, Ronnie and I pulled out boxes of our two son’s baby clothes—those tiny onesies, soft sleepers, and special little outfits. The memories came flooding back: every cuddle, every milestone, every sleepy smile. I couldn’t bear to part with them.

Ronnie surprised me with a brand-new sewing machine, and suddenly those old skills came alive again. I started turning our children’s outgrown clothes into the sweetest stuffed animals: cuddly bears, bouncy bunnies, roaring dinosaurs, brave lions, and more. Each one is handmade with extra love, stitching those fleeting baby moments into something you can hug forever.

Seeing our son's light up when they saw their old outfits transformed into a forever friend… that’s when we knew we had to share this with other parents. 

If you have those precious baby pieces tucked away and want to keep the memories close, I’d love to help you create something truly special. Custom keepsakes made right here in New York City with heart and care.
