My biggest sellers are purses for little girls, crayon rolls (which I hate making! LOL!), and inexpensive handmade jewelry. Baby/toddler quilts made from pre-printed panels sell fairly well, too, especially if you have popular characters available (Frozen's Elsa, Anna, and Olaf, Minions, etc.). Unfortunately, with quilts, many people just see the price, so more labor-intensive and/or larger quilts are slower to sell, at least in this area. If you can accept credit cards, it's a big plus. I have a PayPal app on my cell phone where I can accept them.
