Memory Bears 5 Rachel is one of the most talented and thoughtful people I’ve ever met. She made the most amazing memory bears out of my dad’s clothes, which included his ashes and his signature on the paws. These are the most special keepsakes for all the family and Rachel kept us updated and made each one different. I’d highly recommend Rachel to anyone - she’s super creative and very talented!

Wedding Gifts 5 Rachel was absolutely phenomenal! She was able to bring all my crazy ideas to life and contributed even more crazy ideas for my wedding. She personalised some hoodies with a Lego theme for my bridal party, added names to glasses and cups, made numerous amounts of stickers for order of services and popcorn bags, as well as Prosecco labels and beer cans! All of these were amazing and were commented on numerous times by guests about how unique and personal they were. Rachel also made a very special gift for my now husband, using the handwriting of a family member- it went down very well!! Rachel was always at the end of the phone and replied very quickly! Thank you so much for contributing to my special day :)

Thank you 5 I just wanted to say a huge thanks to Rachel at Rachey's Makey Things! Sadly I lost both my Mother and Father in law last Year and as you can imagine it left my Husband and children heartbroken so for Christmas I wanted to do something that would keep them with us. Rachel made these beautiful Eight memory pillows using their clothes and the reaction from my Family was beautiful, yes there were tears but also smiles and it sparked lots of beautiful conversations about them and it brought us all comfort. Rachel made the whole difficult experience so easy and was very professional. Again huge thanks and I truly can’t recommend her enough.

Gorgeous Goat 5 Really am so pleased with the goat Rachel made for my grandson, he had outgrown a couple of his favourite tops, but didn’t want to part with them, I knew Rachel had made some amazing things from clothing, so I suggested this, he was excited to search for something he would like...he chose a goat. And was absolutely thrilled when Rachel made it. Thank you so much, one very happy boy.

So clever and talented! 5 Rachel has managed to save my very tatty 40 year old teddy bear. She has managed to repair him with such care and consideration, and he now looks like the same old bear but with less stuffing falling out. She has managed to give him a new lease of life without changing him. It’s better than I hoped for!
Caroline Porter 27 Apr 2018

AmaZing 5 Rachel is just lovely. She made a personalised stocking for our daughters first Christmas and was incredibly patient with me while trying to arrange payment / delivery as my daughter was ill. It's perfect and much nicer than ANYTHING I've seen elsewhere. I've just asked her to make a special outfit for her first birthday in January.... can't wait! Thank you Rachel - warning you're going to become my go to for pressies!

A Beautiful Engagement Gift 5 Rachel Baker made me a beautiful cushion for my friends' engagement party. It was so gorgeous and the happy couple were so surprised, I wanted to leave her a well deserved review, especially as her and her husband went the extra mile to make it at really short notice and deliver it, to my detailed specifications, and gift wrap it, that I wanted to let everyone know how fab Racheysmakeythings are.
Emma Mattocks 19 Aug 2016
Patchwork Quilt and Rhinos 5 I've just picked up a beautiful quilt and two wonderful rhino toys made from my daughter's baby clothes. I cannot recommend Rachel enough! She is incredibly talented and creative I had complete confidence from the minute I dropped off the clothes that she would do an amazing job. She gave me regular photo and text updates about progress she'd made and it was a real pleasure working with her. The quilt and toys are wonderful and mean that we have useful and enjoyable memories rather than a bag stuffed in the loft which is what would have happened otherwise! I've already recommended Rachel to several people and am sure I will be back with more projects.
Laura Swan 16 Jun 2016
Lamb 5 I just wanted to add this review from one LYDS member (IEA TUTORING) to another (Rachey's Makey Things).This is the totally adorable handmade lamb, that I ordered and collected today from Rachey's Makey Things. It has been beautifully crafted from a collection of my daughters clothes, which I loved and wanted to do something different with, rather than pop them in a box. He has only been in our house for a few hours, but is already a firm favourite with my daughter. I fully recommend Rachel Baker and her creative, coordinated and amazing sewing skills!
Fiona Twitchett 18 Mar 2016
Coin purse 5 Just received the coin purse that I ordered from Rachel, its beautiful. So well made and the photo quality is fab! Rachel was a delight to meet and I'm sure I will be ordering more from her in the future.
Valerie Nolan 14 Dec 2015
5 I just want to say how much love, care and attention this lady puts into her work, Rachel is also very open to discuss anything you may require, and always find a way to make your dreams come true.
Tracey Grogan 9 Dec 2015
Patchwork quilt 5 Wow! Rachel has absolutely blown me away with the quilt she has produced for my little girl, made from some of my most favourite clothes she had worn but grown out of. Rachel consulted with me all the way through and really understood how precious those chosen clothes were. I can't praise Rachel enough on the quality of her work and her artistic abilities to create such a lovely quilt. My daughter loves it! I will definitely be using Rachel's services again when it comes to making things from textiles! Thank you Rachel!!
Angela 24 Jul 2015

I am now waiting for some hearts that Rachel is making me as a keepsake from my late mummy. Rachel is highly recommended and i will defo be using Rachels fantastic skills in the near future.
Becky 30 Mar 2015
5 Rachel made my daughter a frozen cape at very short notice. Reasonable price and made to length required-my daughter wanted a long cape and I couldn't find one in the shops. I waited a while to review as I wanted to see how well it lasted. I can honestly say it is very good quality and has lasted very well
Claire 22 Sep 2014
Handmade cushion 5 Rachel made me a lovely handmade cushion for Mothers Day with photos of my 2 daughters on it. I picked the fabric from a huge selection. Rachel was very welcoming and friendly the 2 times I visited her home and she made the cushion within 48 hours which was very impressive! I am very pleased with the result and would consider using her services again
