and personalised just for you
A Country Garden
I don't know about you but I find myself wanting to cosy up on the sofa after the excitement of Christmas, and hibernate til Spring! So what better time for trying a mindful sewing project? It's a fabulous slow activity to enjoy anywhere. Simply relax and unwind one stitch at a time.
Perfect in anticipation of Easter is my Country Garden lavender sachet kit. The design features lots of embroidered details to keep you busy, including a blossoming tree, swing, bird house, toadstools, flowers and of course a cute little bunny in the grass!
Just like my other kits this includes full colour instructions and everything you need except scissors, so it's perfect for sewers at any level. It would make a lovely gift for a creative friend or as a treat for yourself and is available now in my Etsy Shop in a choice of 2 colourways.
I've recently added needlework scissors to my shop too. They are available in 3 finishes: silver, gold and neo-chrome. Each pair of scissors comes in their own pretty little Holmemade fabric pouch, and with 7 fabric choices there's one to suit all tastes. The button down flap ensures they stay safe when not in use, so you can keep them in your sewing box or pop them in your bag. Perfect for busy crafters both at home and on the go!
Shop
My Etsy shop Holmemade With Love has recently celebrated it's eight year anniversary! I started out with just a few pictures, cards and cushions, but over time I've adapted and increased my range. I'm adding new items regularly... but there are never enough hours in the day to create all the lovely things in my head or to list them online! Please do take a look and keep checking back for new products. If you don't see what you are looking for just drop me a message and I'll help if I possibly can.
I am incredibly thankful for the hundreds of fabulous reviews that my lovely customers have left on my shop. I've included just a few of them below.

This is a truly beautiful card which has been exquisitely designed and made.
It is one of the nicest cards I've bought from Etsy (and I have bought a lot)
and I'll definitely be buying more in future. It was dispatched promptly and arrived in beautiful packaging.
The quality of the card is excellent and I adore the two small rabbits inside.
It surpassed my expectations and I would highly recommend both the card and the delightful seller.
Thank you so much. Xx

We ordered one of these as an alternative to a Mother's Day bunch of flowers
and it's already been received by the recipient and she absolutely loves it!
It is beautifully made, the perfect size and looks even better in real life.
It also arrived well packaged and delivery was very quick for a made-to-order item.
Communication from the seller was excellent too!

I purchased 3 of these for Christmas presents and I was amazed at the kindness and care taken
by Carole Heaton. I bought the blush tree and Carole personalised the other 2 for me,
one purple and one sage green background. The pictures are so beautiful.
The recipients are thrilled with them. They arrived in good time and were wrapped so carefully.
I also bought some lavender bags and they are exquisite too.
Thank you Carole. It was a pleasure to order from you.
Laura Rogers - 14th April 2021 - Etsy: Children's Cushion
How lucky was I to find Carole! We came across her page and found the perfect cushion cover to go in our
dinosaur themed nursery. Carole was extremely helpful in making sure she created exactly what we wanted.
You can tell by the quality of the cushion it was made with love. Even the back of the cushion was pretty.
I would highly recommend her!!
Jayne - 22rd March 2021 - Etsy: Personalised Bunting

and the end product is beautifully made. Looks lovely in my son’s room.
