    Coasters, hot pads, table runners, if they are in holiday themes everyone can use them with their different decors.

    Luggage tags made out of little quilting squares are fun too...It makes it so much easier to recognize your black luggage going around the carousel. I sew a little loop on them like you would on a hot pad and attatch a key ring to attach them to the luggage handle. You could make them out of neutral colors if you have men that are playing also. I attach one to each side of the handle for better visibility.

    How about snuggies, or something like that. I know you can get a pattern off the net.

    At Bunko everyone was having a problem remember which plastic cup was theirs so I made cup sleeves for everyone. I have an embroidery machine so embroidered everyone's name on them but you could use different print fabrics to instead.

    Attached is picture of a sleeve I made to use when I'm in my singing group and don't want to lose my Starbucks.

    Send me a personal email if you're interested and I'll give you the directions, they are really easy.

    Nope besides my daughter who is in the group too. We are the only women that sew. Thats why I thought it would be fun to make something they couldn't buy.

    Great ideas.

    Funny, that is exactly what I was going to suggest. They work up fast once you get the hang of it. byw, I love that website.
