Meet The Cotswold Holiday Collection
Designed for confident sewists who are ready to try something a little different.
Each month a beautifully curated kit lands on your doorstep – everything you need to make a different style bag, from a sweet zip pouch to a roomy duffle.
Think cottagecore patchwork, gingham prints and Liberty Tana Lawn in two gorgeous colourways – pink or teal. The kind of bags that make people stop and ask where they’re from. And how exciting that you can turn around and say “Thanks! I made them”
You’ll build a complete travel set – a bag for every occasion, every adventure and every day in between.
Tutorials & guidance
Follow along as we make each bag using expert guidance from our online step-by-step video tutorials. Top sewing tips for each of these gorgeous bags.
Live sewing hangouts
Join Alice and fellow makers for relaxed Zoom sessions to chat, share progress and sew together. Feel part of our lovely sewing community as you meet friends that LOVE to sew.
Learn brand new skills
Each of these gorgeous bags will have a detailed tutorial where you can learn new skills like: putting in a zip, learn how to pipe your bag, bag construction and much more.
How it works
Each month builds gently on the last, so your skills grow naturally alongside your collection.

HERE'S WHAT OUR PREVIOUS customers HAD TO SAY
Is the Cotswold Holiday Collection for me?
Join today and begin your beautiful bag making journey with guidance, help and support with our wonderful Alice Caroline community.
This is perfect for you if:
- You find it difficult to find a sewing project with guidance and support
- You want to join in with some mindfulness and relaxing sewing
- You have simply fallen in LOVE with our cute Liberty & gingham bags
- You would love to meet with likeminded sewers and have some sewing FUN!
- You love machine stitching and learning new techniques
A little note... this might not be your cup of tea if:
- You don’t enjoy machine sewing
- You prefer bold, modern fabrics over traditional charm and Liberty florals
- You like to whip up a project in an afternoon - this one’s more of a gentle, slower stitch
- You’d rather buy a finished bag than create pieces filled with your own stitches and memories
Meet Your Host
Hi, I'm Alice
I’ve always loved to travel – and I’ve always believed your bags should be as beautiful as the places you’re going. I designed the Cotswold Holiday Bag Collection so you can sew your own complete travel set, one gorgeous bag at a time. You’re going to fall completely in love with what you make.
I’m passionate about helping sewing enthusiasts like you bring their creative visions to life. I’ve spent years perfecting patterns and techniques that make sewing accessible and enjoyable for everyone – whether you’re just starting out or have been sewing for years.
I understand the struggles of learning on your own – I’ve been there. That’s why I’ve designed this bag making club to give you support, guidance, and inspiration you need to succeed. I’m here to show you that sewing can be easy, fun, and incredibly rewarding when you have the right tools and a community by your side. Alice xo
