I've always emanated to make my friends and family special pin cushions. I have tons of patterns I've collected but never made the tiem to actually make the pincushions. If you want some patterns pm me. I's be happy to share!

Yes, making tissue holders is a good idea. Easy to make 20+. I've have a tutorial for "chain-piecing" them. Can't figure how to attach it here. You can PM me.

What about making those little coasters that are made of 2 1/2" strips of fabric. My friend made me some and I love them. Have been making them for my granddaughters teachers for Christmas presents. If you are interested, PM me and I can make a sample and put it in the mail to you.

i'm making the pyramid pouches. i got my zippers from China on Amazon, 40 for $9.95, no shipping.
They are the pretty lace ones, i got all white, and am using sewing motif fabric. They don't take
long to make, and I have about 25-30 to make for Christmas this year for my bee friends.

Please tell us what you do and give us photo of your work.
