Not exactly homemade, but my great grandmother was into sewing, painting and making things.
My avatar was originally a black and white photograph of her mother, Sarah Jane Tompkins nee Godfree, who died in 1871, which she hand coloured. She now hangs over my fireplace.

The theme for Week 49 is "Homemade."
For many of our ancestors, "homemade vs store-bought" wasn't an option.
Do you have an ancestor who was known for making things? (My great-grandmother was renowned for her pies.)
Do you have something made by an ancestor? Who made it? Tell the story.
