Keepsake Memory Dragon
Couldn't load pickup availability
Save your loved one's favourite clothing or blanket forever by having them made into a one of a kind keepsake memory dragon!
The small size keepsake dragon is about 8"-9" tall and can be made from something as small as a newborn sized footed sleeper, though we may need to supplement with a small amount of extra fabric.
The large size memory dragon is about 11"-12" tall and requires an adult size small shirt or larger, or a size 18 month baby footed sleeper (two is even better!) or larger.
Please send AT LEAST the minimum amount of fabric required for each keepsake. If a small amount of supplemental fabric is required we can only offer plain white flannel. We'll use the pattern on the fabric thoughtfully and add felt spines and safety eyes.

Customer Reviews
The dragon came out better than I could have ever hoped for. I stumbled upon nestlings shortly after my father passed earlier this year and instantly fell in love. The final product came out so clean. My father and I are from Wales and our countries flag has a red dragon on it thus the meaning of this truly means the world to me.
Yay it's here! I love how my daughter's dragon came out with her infant clothes! Even though I didn't have many baby outfits Cara was able to use my daughter's hospital blanket to make up for the rest. Cara was wonderful and helpful through the whole process. The sewing quality of the dragon is exceptional. My daughter is now 10 and loves dragons. I can't wait to surprise her with it on Christmas. I know she will love it too! Thanks a bunch Cara and thank you for returning the unused materials too. You're awesome.
Nestling kids was very helpful in making these keepsakes for me while my husband was deployed. A great way to have a loved one with you always.
This dragon is adorable and could not have more perfect for my son. I cried when I opened the box and my 2 year old son immediately fell in love with his dragon. Cara is so talented. Cara even used my grandmother's silky nightgown to make the wings, tail and bottom soft and sweet, just like my grandma. This was simply so well done! Thank you Cara. I couldn't have asked for a better gift to remember my Grandma!
My 5yr old son was in tears when his favorite knight and dragon pjs no longer fit. I rashly promised I would have them made into a teddy, and then frantically searched for a company to do just that. I came across this site and loved everything I saw! I messaged Cara to ask about it, and mentioned how much he loved dragons. When she told me she was just about to make her first dragon prototype we were both delighted by the happy coincidence. My son’s dragon, made with his pjs, has just arrived and he is absolutely in love with it! I will definitely be a returning customer. Thanks Cara!!!
