What about little cases that could be pencil cases or cosmetic cases? They're fast/easy!

Thanks for the link, great idea.

Thanks!

Here is the first couple of items....Environmentally Friendly gift bags and a childrens sock holder....have finished 10 gift bags and nearly finished 10 more.....have sock bags cut out ready to sew!

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

I love your gift bags. Would you share directions, please?

Thanks.

I went into Moda's bakeshop and they have lots of ideas and patterns. I made the itty-bitty bags for my granddaughter's

friends.http://www.modabakeshop.com/2008/12/recipes.html

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!
