I think it depends on your background. My mother was an excellent seamstress who taught me to sew at an early age, so all of my clothing until I was well into my 30s was "homemade" but looked very professional, but homemade was not always a positive observation as many people in the 60s and 70s made clothing that had that "homemade" look which was not a compliment! I also associate homemade with food that is usually cooked primarily from scratch in a home kitchen. Handmade brings to mind those items made from any variety of materials that are transformed into something else by loving hands.
