What about little cases that could be pencil cases or cosmetic cases? They're fast/easy!
Thanks for the link, great idea.

I have sold at a few craft fairs...usually table runners, placemats, coasters to match (I make hexagon shapes), the little tissue holders for your purse sell for $2 w/5 tissues. I have a pattern for allover baby bibs, which velcros at back of neck and ankles...usually a big hit at $7 or $8 here in So. Cal.
Good Luck!

I would also make corn therapy bags as they are big sellers! You can buy the "cow corn" in your local farm feed store. It is not that expensive and I like corn better than rice because of the smell. The corn when placed in a microwave smells like popcorn. Here is a link on how to make them.

Just keep in mind you want something you can make pretty fast and doesn't cost a lot to make.

I make a pincushion/scrap and thread holder for my quilting friends. They all love them and I can make them out of my scrap material I have left over.

Here are my directions. Once you get the hang of it, it doesn't take long at all to make.

I have attached a document on how to make the pincushion/scrap bag.
Could you post a picture of your pin cushion/scrap? I am sorry I have to see it to understand it. God bless. Penny

Thanks.

Just posted my fabric bag. Very easy to make, and all of my friends love them. My BFF's husband wants one too. He gets a gray menswear woolen that I have had sitting around for years!
