I need tutorials and patterns to make small items to donate to our company fundraiser for local charities. I need things I can make quickly. I appreciate all ideas. Thanks!

Look under tutorials for tissues holder. It's very easy and uses scraps.

I am waiting for a tutorial on the little panties coin purse posted by Wowilikethat. Maybe you can figure it out from the picture post? She does have a site under the same name and I am going to check there as well. They are really cute!

I made a bunch of small quilts for dogs or cats that I am hoping will sell quickly at our guild's craft booth. Let me find a picture. People buy things for their pets, or at least I hope they do.

The checkerboard squares are 4 " and the border around that is a 2 inch border. These went together quickly. Maybe it is an idea that could be helpful?

If you have an embroidery machine small in-the-hoop coin purses or zip drive holders are quick. I use sports fabrics and they always sell fast.
