Thank you all for your responses. I now have a much better idea of what to make, and have started making things I actually do have some items made - 6 potato bags, 3 lap quilts, 1 bed size, and some glasses cases. I didn't know about it in June and only found out a few weeks ago..
Thanks again,
Thanks again,

I know what the crayon rolls are! They are a peice of fabric that is long enough to sew slots for several crayons and then they roll up with the crayons in them and are tied with a ribbon. Super cute and very easy to make and kids love them and they are a great way to store crayons for trips. You can choose 2 matching fabrics, one for the outside and one for the inside using fun fabric that kids love.

I hope you will pm me when you post. I like them and think they are worth making, yours are really sweet.

cute I like them
I have been making kindle covers, checkbook covers- which very few people use, photo album covers for small albums, cell phone cases, boarding pass holders - simplicity pattern. I also do baskets, whatever I get requests for or am in the mood for.

I make ornaments and they sell very well at our church fair. Three or four inch mini traditional quilt blocks in any colors, not necessarily red and green or holiday prints, can be made by making a quilt sandwich with a coordinating backing and thin batting. I layer Warm and White batting on the bottom, then the backing right side up and the block on top, wrong side up. (The block and backing are facing each other.) Sew all around, leaving a space for turning, and then turn right side out and edge stitch all around, catching in the unstitched turning place. Sometimes I've done paper pieced trees in 3 or 4 shades of green. They can be embellished and then finished as above. A hanging loop can be placed between the backing and the block before stitching, or it could be added afterwards. The items on your list sound perfect for a craft show. Have fun, and please let us know how it goes.

I would make soup bowl holders and sell them in 4's 19.95 a set.
Bring a bowl and micro wave and heat some apple crisp, so they can smell it, give little pieces in a cup cake paper. This keeps their interest and gets others to come to your booth. Show them, how you can hold the hot bowl and sell them a set. Cost to make is about $1.10 each. Insul=bright and cotton at 10.95 a yard.
